Its about finding the right mix to spark something, not just the number of at bats. The ideal lineup has been failing miserably. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By giving your best hitters the most at bats. This isn't rocket science. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox59 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 This feels like another one of those "I am the captain now" moments from Tony when facing questioning from the inside. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure once he knows the roster better then the lineups will start to make a lot more sense. isn't that the excuse his apologists were using last year? you can't expect a manager to come in and know the players and rules of the game. give him some more time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roberts 4. Vaughn 5. Moncada 6. Grandal 7. Sheets 8. Pollack 9. Engel Leury because he hits Keller pretty good. Jose needs to sit. Well, the fact that you are batting Leury 2nd tells me enough about where your mind is at. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
