Engel against tough RHP is not a good answer

But Andrew Vaughn is?

Eloy fucked us, plain and simple.  JR fucked us, too, by refusing to pay for a competent LF replacement.  This is compounded by TA and our primary back OF both being on the IL.  I'm not excusing TLR but let's not pretend he's sitting stud starters every night.  

TLR has tossed out over 100 different line-ups a season over most of his career.  That's what he does.  This should come as no surprise that we aren't seeing consistency from him.

Eloy didn't F us.  Our lineup should still be fine without him.  Larussa continuing to not give Vaughn a chance and play williams and leury everyday has F'd us.

Fine, substitute "guy who should be playing" for "starter."  It's kind of a semantic point.  There are ways to construct our lineups so we don't see the likes of Williams, Lamb, and Mendick making up a third of our batting lineup. They should do that.

How?  With Leury?  Not going to sacrifice defense?

It depends on how much of a trendline you're willing to draw from his 2 hits coming against lefties.

But...damn, if you can't play Vaughn against righties, and you can't play Engel against righties, heck at least keep the one on the roster who can catch the ball.
