who bats lead off then?

 

To be honest, I could see Mack leading off. We certainly wouldn't have much of a dropoff, and the leadoff hitter only really matters at the beginning of the game.

 

I HATE that Hardee's commercial. Shut your mouth New Yorkers.

That's exactly why I asked how many times Pods led off a game, got on base, and then stole. That's about the only thing that would be different than someone else leading off. I really doubt he's done that many times.

 

Is Frank Thomas and Bill Melton the answer to the trivia question?

for some reason, I don't think it's Frank.

Against the pitcher the first time in a game, Pods is batting .253 with 15 SB, according to ESPN.com.

 

That's actually more SB's than I figured for the 1st, but I still don't think it would be much of a dropoff from Pods to Mackowiak/Ozuna.

He's going to occupy the opposing pitcher's mind a lot more than either Mack or Ozuna. It wasn't that long ago he was up near .300 after starting off very slow. I think Pods's value will never be fully measured by statistics.

Freddy does it again.

 

Ortiz leads off next inning....it's nice not having anyone on when he comes up.

I thought Youkalis was the big out there. If he walked him, that inning could have deteriorated quickly.
