Mangum is a better centerfielder

Also just noticed that Belmont is back and playing at 2B instead of SS. And Kruger over Rooker at DH. This lineup is the ultimate example of #Cohening

Very happy to see them back

I think putting Belmont at 2nd takes pressure off of him a little...doesn't bother me as much Kruger not at C and Rooker not at DH...maybe due to DH

Msstatefan91, you care if I change your thread title to "Alabama Game 2 Thread"?

I'm fine with that...we can agree to disagree


I do think the OF is better now defensively

Definitely agree with that

A guy that ain't played in a month should default back into the lead off role?

I can see that, but Belmont at SS does nothing to solve the problems on the left side of our infield. He's not out there to hit, so put him back where he belongs and can help cover up E5 Collins' D.

I get why most people don't really worry about DH too much. Kruger over Rooker at DH is far from the worst decision in this lineup. And looking at the numbers, it's actually a lot closer decision than I'd have initially thought.

I see you did it anyway. lol

Perfectly fine

Mangum doing Mangum things. Leadoff infield single on first pitch

Collins ground out ends T1. 0-0 headed B1.

I hate 7 inning games. Going into the top of the 2nd when we bat is basically now like going into the top of the 4th after one at bat.

OMG, Collins made a great defensive play!

Hell of a play by Collins to end the 1st scoreless.

nt

Haven't heard anything on Stovall. Looks like this one may be a pitchers duel. 0-0 going to Bottom of second.
