hawksox13 Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 QUOTE (TitoMB @ Jun 26, 2012 -> 01:39 PM) So, Robin really is just going to f*** with Beckham. Phenomenal. If Beckham is so weak in the head that he can't handle being moved from 2nd to 9th in the lineup then he'll likely never meet the potential that we all initially thought he had. See the ball, hit the ball, regardless of your spot in the lineup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See the ball, hit the ball, regardless of your spot in the lineup. i don't think it's a huge deal, but Beckham was doing pretty well. He's almost back up to .250. Let's see if he can handle this or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamshack Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Jun 26, 2012 -> 02:21 PM) Welcome to the major leagues. God forbid Robin move a career .249 hitter out of the #2 to try and balance out the lineup more. It never fails around here. Personally, I would have put Youk at the bottom of the order and moved him up if he started to hit...no need to move Gordon until there is a reason to move him...but it's not the end of the world...Gordon has gone through a lot of adversity over the last few years. If hitting in a different spot in the order is going to sink his ship, I'd be shocked. He hit the ball hard last night several times...I don't think he was too concerned.
