Get a new lineup.

[Rex54]

Hancock
James
Allen
Tanner
Find 5 guys who can compete.

But those 4 have to be 1-4 in whatever order - they need the most ABs

[KOdawg1]

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.

Is there really no one that can replace Hatcher at first?

[KOdawg1]

Is there really no one that can replace Hatcher at first?

You've got Pimentel, Allen, or Clark.

[Todd4State]

I like the TA at first and Cumbest in RF suggestion.

If you're going to sit Hatcher, I'd rather just leave Allen in RF and let Kellum Clark have a shot at first. Hatcher had two good hits today though. My biggest issue is 2B and Rowdey.

[t45fixer]

Rowdy needs to sit. All the hype form him and he?s not living up to it.

[Todd4State]

Why? Clark hasn't done anything.

[KOdawg1]

Why? Clark hasn't done anything.

Bc his potential outweighs Cumbest's. He had a couple of hits today, but Cumbest is a 6'5 hitter who hits like he's 5'10". He doesn't have this enormous power bat like people think. People love him because he plays football and is big.

Clark is not healthy enough to play right now is what I'm hearing- and Cumbust is hitting .350. He needs more AB's.

He's hitting the ball better than most of our starters.

Clark has been ill and probably isn't 100% yet and hasn't looked ready at all.

[KOdawg1]

He's hitting the ball better than most of our starters.

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.

Clark's not playing anytime soon it seems. Cumbust is hitting .350. Why are you mad he has the speed to beat out a groundball? He's hitting .350. Only an idiot would want to play others that continually fail over somebody showing promise.

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.

Nobody outside of Allen or James is a long term answer. We have recruited position players poorly for the most part the last 2-3 years

Cumbest can run at least.

[KOdawg1]

Cumbest can run at least.

He can. He's very athletic.

[Homedawg]

He had 4 hits this weekend I get it. But one was hit hard. One was a swinging bunt and two others were big hop ground balls. And his k rate is super high. We can start him but he isn't the answer.

We agree on alot of shit- but Who deserves to play over him? Can we not give him a couple of weekends to fail like we have the others? Hatcher is hitting .225 after 100 AB's. Surely he can match that huh?

I don't have a problem running him out there. I don't. But, his avg is inflated look at babip. And he doesn't drive the ball either and k's at a high rate against bad pitching. Much less sec. really just saying he isn't the answer. Not that he doesn't deserve a shot.
I will give him this, when he does put it in play it's usually on the ground and not a week pop out
