Connor is so selfish that he got the flu. Connor hates the team.

 

 

I thought Garcia was playing 3B yesterday with Semien at 2B?

 

Hmmm...is it really that clear that Semien's better at 3B? Most of his minor league playing time has been at SS/2B, and Garcia has the better arm of the two.

Why are they moving Semien around already?

 

I can understand with L.Garcia, he's not an integral piece of the long-term plan at this point, but I don't know why they're seemingly content with turning Semien into a utility guy.

 

Just increasing his versatility before Beckham returns?

 

Still don't get that, because he should be in Charlotte playing everyday at either SS or 2B, one or the other. Probably 2B, with Carlos Sanchez at SS.

They didn't move Semien around. He played 3B yesterday.

What I should have said was "from Opening Day."

 

I just think you should leave Semien at one position (2B) and that Garcia should be the one you move around between 3B/SS/2B interchangeably.

 

He hasn't gotten a hit yet this season, it would be nice if he could get comfortable in one place instead of having to also focus on changing positions defensively.

The strain of the flu going around this year is brutal. I had it over the last few days and I was kid sick. Slept for 16 hours straight. Had hallucinations... That weren't even fun. Man, it sucked. I'm just empathizing with Conor.

 

Adam Dunn really did hit a homer yesterday. That really happened.

I see your point, but I'm not sure if Leury can play 3B.

Leury Garcia Career:

Position/Games

2B/22

SS/7

CF/6

3B/6

 

So I guess he can, but it seems like he's more of a 2B/SS/CF- much like Alexei.

Interestingly, neither of them has played a single minor league game at 3B.

 

Semien has 22 career major league games there now.
