Looks like a pop up thundershower at most.  I'm not TOO worried.

Hope you are right, we drove 400 miles to go to this game. All the weather apps are telling me different things.

The Adley and Gunnar switch is interesting. Wonder what the thinking is there.

Is this game gonna be blacked out locally?

They want the OBP machine leading off and the player with more pop hitting second. 

I can see this becoming permanent.

Can anyone recall a slower leadoff hitter than Adley?

I've always believed that Gunnar would make a very good #2 hitter because of his combination of speed and power as well as having enough plate discipline to work the count and walk if necessary. 

I think Adley is good in either the #3 or #2 spot with Cedric as the leadoff. Gunnar I think is a good #2 or a great #4 or #5 because of his power, and in case something goes wrong where he's got to lead off the next inning, he has those talents for that job as well. Especially his speed.

I think this offense really needs to aspire for more 3 run Home Runs.

Kyle Schwarber, Brian Downing, and Chris Davis during 5 games in 2018 come to mind.
