Holliday batting sixth tonight and McCann catching. 

[Too Tall]

We are going to have to resign McCann just for Eflin! I see a trend.

I have no problem if we re-sign McCann.  As long as it's a one-year deal.

I like Holliday rising up in the order.

I like him justifying rising in the order, which he’s done. He did have a couple of very ugly strikeouts yesterday before his RBI single.

Pivetta has severe reverse splits. Seems like Mountcastle or Jiminez would be better DH choice.

Yeah, yeah, you know what I meant.

Yes, I did.  Just making a point.

He's also going to have to take a pretty hefty pay cut.

Does Jackson Holliday get any kind of Bert Campaneris all 9 positions award if he bats 9th, 8th, 7th, 6th, 5th, 4th, 3rd, 2nd and 1st all in the same season?

I wonder how many times that’s happened?   More than the Bert Campaneris feat, I’m sure. 

Just looked, and Nick Markakis batted everywhere 2-9 his rookie year.  I remembered him getting moved all over that year.  

 

[Frobby]

Gunnar batted all 1-9 last year.

Would honestly rather have Slater bat leadoff than Adley right now. Looked like Adley was back on track but went right back to upper cutting popups and having terrible ABs. 

I hope they figure something out in the off-season with him because he's a straight up mess right now and has been for over 2 straight months. It's a huge problem.

Hopefully this overly harsh comment reverse jinxes him. Lol.

I think it’s more about expecting Benardino to go 1-2 innings and still have a good lineup after for Criswell.
