omg please do this Shucks!

We need a home run come on!

Wait do we have a HR at home yet?

or a Win?

feel like I won the lottery with a a baserunner!

Pujols, Hamilton, Trumbo

1-2-3 inning

John Wall

Our RISP average can't get worse if we never make it to second base.

obviously he's making fun of us right?

this ointment feels mighty fine

come on guys lets string some hits together

Harris gets a hit!  

J.T. Snow

Whenever I try to have this discussion with my wife, it's always short and one sided.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

She likes having Aybar bat second and won't even listen to any of my suggestions.

I know what you mean... my girl only has this discussion when she's had a few drinks.

 She doesn't like to switch it up, but she would consider Hamilton in that spot.

Hamilton 1-4, 2K's

Generally yes

but specifically no?

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned where Trumbo bats in the lineup.  THIS MAN WAS BORN TO END INNINGS....There have been so many times this year already where there have been men in scoring position and this guy just strikes out...

I know Hamilton is struggling too, so how does it make sense to bat these guys back to back at the 4 and 5 slots.  Even if we get Trout or Pujols on base, it doesn't matter because Trumbo, the INNING-SLAYER, does not produce.  

Theoretically you want a power bat in the 5 hole , but I would just take someone who can consistently get a single like Kendrick or Callaspo.
