I like this lineup too. Not enough to be serious pennant contenders. But I like it.

I think lineup is good enough to win with. Need Mountcastle to be better. Team doesn’t have that superstar like a Miguel Cabrera in his prime. You look at tonight’s lineup not a an easy out there. 
 

Looked like it earlier though….

I have said to my wife....not on this board haha.....for the past 2 months that it made no sense to me why Cowser..Westberg....and Ortiz were not up here playing every day.

They are our future.....along with a few others. (we all know who)  Mateo, Frazier, and xxx and xxx are not.

 

Why live and die with guys who will never be here in a year or 2?

 

I have never understood it.

Elias thinking hey maybe I should have called these guys up 4 weeks ago

I don't think he questions himself all that much.

What happened to Frazier?

 Certainly looked that way.

He was already holding a ball in his hand when they threw him Cowsers ball, looked like he was just trying to mess with Cowser.

Good to see Henderson didn't get the yips from that earlier event....

You had veterans playing pretty well and young guys getting everyday at bats at AAA.

Would it be really off-center for me to remark that it started with Cedric getting that double down the line? 

I hear you. But we’ve struggled a lot with RISP. So Cowser had the ice breaker IMO.

I was thinking the same thing.  He could have gone full Steve Sax there.

Yes that def crossed my mind. Would be kind of hard not to.

Great start by Kremer tonight, other than the 5th. This is much better than I hoped/could have asked for.
