I got it from people that maybe know Pedro was ordered to remove Tim from the lead off spot and moving him to #2 was a proverbial middle finger.

It's a sad state of affairs when so many people rush to defend a guy hitting so poorly over the past month because sometimes he's the only offense the team can muster.

He would have walked. We need to do things differently, not repeating the same mistakes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad state of affairs when some people don't realize when the loser manager bats Burger 7th most of the season and doesn't use him effectively to hit higher in the order and take full advantage of his power. This would also greatly enhance him being able to see better pitches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
