2024 Ongoing Lineup Thread

This lineup really doesn't make sense. Roster management is a bit mind boggling. You...activate Hays on the 12th, cut McKenna, send down Kjerstad, callup Stowers. You knew it was raining, were going to face a lefty...then you don't play Hays because it's wet out and proceed to trot Mullins out there against a lefty.

Make it make sense.

Then you PH Hays in the 7th.

And then not PHing O'Hearn for McCann. What is Hyde doing?

[ShoelesJoe]

Stowers in LF.

I like it. OF defense leaves a bit to be desired but what are you gonna do.

[Frobby]

I’m pleased to see Stowers getting a start.  Hopefully he looks decent on both sides of the ball today.

The saga of the sore calf continues.   Poor Hays.

[Hank Scorpio]

Yeah this is a fun one other than O'Hearn being in RF. 

I presume that Santander's knee bruise was just that - nothing serious. They need him to get going a little bit.

Has someone said that, or is this just trying to bat as many lefties as possible against a tough RHP?

This is our best possible bat lineup.

Hays still hindering us even w/o playing.  Should put him right back on the IL.

Things that should never happen for $500, Alex.

I'm praying that Stowers comes thru at least on defense.  As kids today would say, our OF defense looks sus.

[Just Regular]

The pitcher news is the takeaway for me....it looks like Cole Irvin is being bypassed.

[Spy Fox]

Mullins' slump has left a tiny crack in the door for Stowers to force himself into more playing time.

I don't expect a Cowser-type launch into everyday time, but a hot streak at the right time here could do something.

O’Hearn is a better defensive OF than Kjerstad.
