Leyland

[mjsb2]

This is a little out there but I wouldn't mind going AJ, Miggy, Prince, Vmart - top 4.

Would be a great lineup, but Leyland would never be that imaginative.

But your reason was, none on and 2 out -- basically saying Miggy will start the next inning, not so bad. But Miggy is great at starting two out rallies in that situation.

He has been good at that, but having him lead off an inning is still better. Plus, any time Miggy would get to bat in the 1st, it would be with at least 1 man on. Even with 2 outs thats a better chance to score runs than none on 2 out. Avila would be perfectly capable of starting a few of his own 2 out 1st inning rallies given his OBP skills. Whether Miggy gets to lead off an inning to start a fresh rally or gets to hit with men on but 2 out, either situation is better than none on, 2 out for him to be hitting in.

That'd be pretty good too, a pitcher would have to face our 3 best hitters right away, with VMart and whoever is hitting 5th (avila, peralta, good corner OF to be named later) to knock them in.

But in 2012, AJ has been getting on at a .400 clip and when Dirks has played and Berry was hot. He'd come on in the first with lots on.

And this really wasn't about Miggy at 3 or 4 but Avila at 3rd.

Cabby has to hit 3rd. He's our best hitter and that's usually the 3 spot for that particular guy.

Gotta find another spot for Avila and i'd rather bat him 5th if anywhere.

I've said that ever since he got here, and all I got was slack.

I say 3rd too but there are others out who say he should 4. Just opinions is all but to say 3 hole doesn't matter near the same is ludicrous.

I think he was referring to Avila.

 

[Mitchrapp]

I think he was referring to Avila.

He was saying put Avila 3rd because 3rd means a whole lot less. Which is dumb.

He didn't say that.

It only weakens your argument when you have to make up what he said.

What the fuck are you talking about?

 

[Mitchrapp]

The 3 hole isnt that important because of the amount of ABs the hitter there will get with none on, 2 out. the 3 hole is the least important spot of any of the top 5.

This is what he said you schmucks. Geez.

"3 isn't that important."

And later added that's why Avila should be 3.

i probably should have phrased it "isnt AS important". its still important, just not as important as 1, 2, 4, or 5. your 4 best hitters should be in those spots somewhere.

Probably but don't say "making up shit" "what are you talking about" etc. I just responded to what you wrote.
