Back when he could hit? What year was that anyway?

[Pujols4MVP]

Trouts leading off again....Kinsler will go 0 for 5 lolz.
Hermosillo >>>>>> Young

[robblin17]

1950?

[Angelsfirst]

It’s gonna be weird when when we suddenly start mashing on the road again after that poor offensive showing last home stand. 

[fan_since79]

Kinsler, leading off this year: 23 games, .181/.257/.245

batting 7th: 8 games, .250/.344/.429

 

[Glen]

Poor leadoff spot.

Get the f out of our lineup, Kinsler.

[fan_since79]

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand that Kinsler is total crap in the leadoff spot.

Does Scioscia have access to Baseball Reference or even know about it?? Does he care??

"it worked before, it will work again" said man with square peg and round hole.

[mtangelsfan]

Do you guys really believe that a 10 year veteran is effected by where he hits in the batting order?

[Dick Enberg]

This is the line up that can bust down some doors, if everyone just played to there career norms! lets do it!

[Ohtani&Trout]

Pujols is still batting 4th. Too comical.

[totdprods]

Herm will get some time this series because of the turf.

Almost as comical as bringing it up each day.

Careful you may catch some flack for questioning the almighty lineup wizard.

Young is worse cause of fielding and OBP.

Fielding, sure, but Young has a higher OBP than Calhoun this year. Calhoun's batting average is slightly higher though.

Other fun facts, Young's OBP is higher than Calhoun's SLG. Both are below .250.
