Collins 3-22 (.136)
Rooker 2-15 (.133)

Neither are plus defenders. My proposal is giving Stovall a look at 3b and mangum in rf. How have I got it wrong?

We have lineup changes every game.

That we do... Collins seems to be above reproach though and I can't figure out why. He's shaky at best as a defender and he's hitting Alexander level so far

Collins has to stay in the lineup bc he's proven he can be a good hitter at this level. He's in a slump as is Kruger. Rooker has been getting pine time lately.

Collins hit .228 last year with an ops of 611. His freshman year, he hit .304 with an ops of 739, but his babip was .333. His babip last year was .255 and .273 this year

Hump needs to sit vs RHP's...we'd be better off platooning Mangum and Brown

gotta throw out alot with Collins last year- he was hurt and never got going. Hand injuries are tough

That's fair... I'm just seeing a ton of pop ups right now from him and that seems to be from trying to do too much. Wish he would look to hit more line drives instead of trying to hit every pitch out

He's in a funk- but he has shown he can hit. I still think it has as much to do with the constant movement in the line up as much as anything. We know what these guys can do now. Get a line up vs RHP's and one against LHP's and lets do that for about 3 weeks

This is where we have to agree to disagree. Collins has moved a spot or two. He hasn't gone from the 3 to the 9 and back. That's an excuse. Just ****ing hit. That's what you are there for.
