We need to scrap it and start over. We're 17ing awful.
Once Skinner is okay to play, I'd go
1. Skinner - CF
2. Allen - RF
3. James - 3B
4. Hancock - DH
5. Tanner - C
6. Hatcher - 1B
7. Leggett/Dubrule battle - 2B
8. McDonald/Rowdy/Cumbest battle - LF
9. Forsythe - SS
The bottom of that lineup sucks, but at least the top gives you a chance. If I'm Lemonis, I tell everyone tomorrow that they no longer have a spot in the lineup. They'll have to earn it. Experience and leadership be damned. Who ever produces plays.
Rowdy needs to sit. All the hype form him and he?s not living up to it.
Cumbest isn't the answer
I mean, is he though? He had one good hit today. The other was one he beat in the ground right at the plate that he beat out. Seems like if he isn't striking out, that's what he's doing. I just don't get the Cumbest hype.
Clark very well may not be ready, but if he is close to 100% I'd give him a shot. We've got to find answers.
Reality is our roster has hitting and power limitations no matter how you slice and dice it. Our roster is imbalanced with pitchers vs batters.
If I was Lemonis I would sit every 17in one of them and have a youth movement during the midweek. I would make it BERY clear, if you wanna start, you better bring the shit instead of prancing around and trying to look cool.
Not mad at all. Not quite sure where you got the from.
I don't mind Cumbest getting more at-bats bc we honestly can't get worse, I just don't think he's a long term answer. If we're looking at averages on guys with limited at-bats, then Kyte McDonald needs a shot. He's got more extra base hits than Cumbest in 1/3 of the ABs.
And I haven't advocated for those continually failing to play. Clark hasn't continually failed bc he hasn't been healthy.
