Not sure why everyone's calling for Yadi to be dropped in the lineup. Ever since Jose Oquendo helped him with his stance in the playoffs, all he's done is hit.
We all know what he did in the playoffs, he hit over .400 in Spring Training and is off to a good start after going 2-for-4 yesterday.
Don't get me wrong, I doubt he'll be winning any Silver Sluggers but maybe, just maybe, this 24 year old can progress at the plate to a point where he'll be perfect in the 5 or 6 spot.
Tommorow nights lineup.

Where am I? Maybe I should head over to CT for sane baseball discussion.

Amazing what a World Series can do! Not that I don't want to win more, but it is much easier to just relax and enjoy the games now then last season.TimeForGuinness wrote:Does anyone else find it "Twilight Zone" strange that all of a sudden we can see Looper in the rotation and we can see Molina batting 5th.
What the heck is going on?

I've told myself I'm not going to brag about him until he's finished at least one full season of "decent" hitting.-

Knowing Tony, I'd be surprised if he went RLRRRLLL against a RHP.cabby7588 wrote:Lets get the lefties back in there! I'm so ready for Duncan...And Speezer!
I'd go like this:
Eckstein
Duncan
Pujols
Rolen
Molina
Edmonds
Spiezio
Kennedy
Kinda diggin the whole Molina hitting 5th thing...at least for now.
Mix those Rs and Ls up a bit would be my guess.

Yes. I'm not saying I wasn't miffed about the game last night, but I'd have been a lot worse off if we hadn't won the world series, and it was only the first game. Now I can just enjoy it more and watch the development of the young players.Third Strike wrote:Amazing what a World Series can do!
