And we do know spring training numbers are rock solid indicator for future performance

Fantastic handle.

It is nice to see a lineup built around social justice awareness.

I would be surprised if Jackson isn't the platoon for Mullins this year. It's a good way to give him ABs.

I like this.

Well he did bat .151 in spring training...

That was my thought, Mullins has speed and should use it to his advantage. Especially to get himself out of a slump.

I just saw Beckham had made SEA, pretty sure he signed a milb deal.  So really close to not being a MLBer.  Just think about the whole set of position players from last year's OD roster.  Even Rasmus, Valencia, and Trumbo aren't in the MLB.  Sisco is in the minors.  So only Machado, Schoop, Jones, Beckham, Mancini, and Rickard, made 2019 OD roster.  7/13 position players did not.  

Beckham is leading the league with a .750 batting average. Caleb won't be up unless injury.

I would prefer to see Mancini at 1B and Davis at DH, not because Mancini is a better 1B man, but because Davis has no future on this team and Mancini's future as a position player is at first.

Mancini is a DH.

I haven't given up on him at first.  It certainly makes more sense to have him there than Davis.

He could play there if needed.

This is the best lineup so far this year.

That’s Chris Dickerson the night he hit a walk off homerun. That was a fun game

Davis in the 7th spot is much better than Davis leading off. A step in the right direction.

God. My brain knows this is a thing that actually happened, but I still kind of don't believe it.

Davis batted in the 7th spot 18 times last year.   The experiment with him batting leadoff lasted five games.

no Davis or Mullins 

[mdbdotcom]

Surprised Severino isn't in there.

[Enjoy Terror]

Wow, Nunez out to clean up. I guess that’s something for his resume.
