That's what naps are for.

Cowser LF

Mateo 2B

Rubber game.  Hyde and Elias want to win.  Mateo at 2B against a LHP.   Interesting but not surprising.

Good to see Mounty already back out there starting.

It’s good to have Mountcastle back in the lineup today. 

McCann has been getting a lot of run lately. Good thing is he’s been hitting pretty good thus far.

I don't think Holliday has started a game against a LHP since coming up, but I could be wrong.

If so, I think that’s more a product of his difficult start rather than how they hoped to use him.  They never intended to platoon him but he’s been so bad they are trying to get him started by sitting him against LHP.

Yep, agree. It's fine for now IMO. Mateo has been pretty solid in a platoon role. Holliday needs to be put in a position to succeed above anything else at this point.

He did go 5-5 in the playoffs against TX

Wondering if we should give Adley an actual day off? Maybe Urias at 3B and Westburg to DH against the next lefty we face?

He has been killing it batting RH. And the bats we need to get in the lineup are LH. Would make more sense for his off day to be vs RHP.
