I don't know that I've ever watched someone change the lineup for no apparent reason as often as Cohen. I'm especially perplexed since they've had shitloads of practices through the fall & spring.

I really, really don't like this always moving the SS & 2B for sure.

Yeah, that makes sense****

Mangum did have a clutch hit yesterday other than that I dont understand it

Reid also finally got a clutch hit and RBI and he sits him. And we are still shuffling players all over the infield, catcher and LF!

Hope I'm wrong, but I'm not feeling this lineup.

I've always heard from those who know more about baseball than me is that when players come out and play the same position and bat in the same order for the most part, a comfort zone gets created enabling the player to improve. You grow accustomed to your position knowing how the ball flies off the bat creating better fielding instincts. You grow accustomed to a certain batter hitting in front of you and especially the one hitting behind you. You get better knowing what type of pitches to expect.

Cohen needs to settle on a more consistent line up in my opinion. I'm tired of seeing our players tearing it up in the summer then sucking under Cohen.

Seems like another one of those different lineup for every single game seasons aka the John cohen special lol

Hump got hit in the hand yesterday- so that could be part of it. But Brown sitting again is just ridiculous

He has a dartboard with positions and one with player names. He also has a bunch of darts paired by color. Throw one of each color at each board. Red dart name = red dart position. Brown dart name = brown dart position. And so on and so forth.

Sounds predictable****

This has been my sermon the last two years with Cohen. Players need to know when and where they are playing and batting. It creates consistency and confidence. When we made it to the finals, we had a pretty consistent lineup. Although, I didn't agree with the little man batting cleanup, at least he stayed with it for the most part.

I can see tweaking the batting order some depending on the pitcher being faced. What I don't like is moving people all over the infield at random. Don't care what anyone says ... this is going to cause more errors, especially mental ones, and some because footwork is different too.

WOW....now we suck before the first pitch is even thrown...and we've yet to hear from Blackout or War Machine Dawg....sure to be a great day on the board****

Cody Brown must've porked "Hitting Guru's" wife. No explanation for him not being in lineup every game. Not surprised "Hitting Guru" is making all of these moves because after all, he knows more about baseball than Abner Doubleday.

Is anyone actually surprised by Johnny? How many seasons must one observe to acquire the perception of him? It took me half a season. Others are welcome to join as you come around.

Wild pitch/passed ball... I'm so sick of these

Hump is hurt

Mangum pays off... Come on Daniel
