2011 MLB Regular Season Gameday Thread

fucking shit

why is delmon young still batting 3rd?
why is maggs batting 2nd?

holy hell

good for you guys winning in spite of it, but man that frustrates me more than anything in baseball right now..........other than the dodgers bunting with their hottest hitter lol

 

[RipCity32]

It's working lol.
Delmon been hitting like .300 as our 3rd.

 

[WHO-DEY-BENGALS_18]

Mise well not change things if it's working.. If it ain't broke don't fix it

 

[snipezo]

What I don't get is how Aaron got hot when he joined the D-Backs? His swing looks the same.

 

[Mexi]

he's OPSing .662 as your 3rd
thats piss
his average as your 3rd is the same as his OBP
ewwwww

 

[elcheato]

His on base percentage is under .300 on the Tigers and once his hot streak ends as far as average goes, he's going to be pretty much worthless.

I get that feeling that they know more than us and that they do it for a reason... I mean, that is why we are sitting on the computer, while they are managing the team.

jim leyland is really a piece of work

 

[RipCity32]

It's cause he has never walked in a Tigers uniform lol.

 

[snipezo]

Whatever at least Kelly Johnson's been playin well for the Jays. Hope he becomes a type A FA but if he accept arb I won't mind. There are really no good 2B FA anyways.

your other hitters make up for it

it's just common sense to bat your best players higher in the order, to get more at bats, than your sucky guys

Cabrera should be batting 3rd.

as of now, Tigers 3rd hole has gotten 72 more at bats than the 4th spot

 

[Mexi]

It's cause he has never walked in a Tigers uniform lol.

and leyland still bats him 3rd with guys like Vmart, Miggy, Avila and Peralta on the team. amazing

 

[RipCity32]

Bottom line is it is working lol.
Played considerably better with Delmon in the 3 spot.

 

[snipezo]

Yea I don't understand why Cabrera doesn't hit third. It's not like he doesn't have protection in the lineup. I mean VMart and Avila have been great.

 

[Mexi]

come playoffs, i would want miggy/vmart/avila/peralta getting more ABs, but thats just me

 

[RipCity32]

Miggy never hit 3rd since he has been here too my knowledge.

 

[elcheato]

The Indians are 7-1 with Thome in the lineup this year, and hes hitting .179 with us. Just because your record is good after a trade, doesn't mean that's the reason its good..

 

[WHO-DEY-BENGALS_18]

Right now, it is working so there's no need to change anything... If he was struggling I can guarantee you he wouldn't be hitting #3.
