Obviously, Travinski cannot play first base. I understand benching Jones due to excessive strikeouts, but why not put Tre at first and Kling in left field? This seems like an obvious move to me.

I'd like to see Morgan at 1B, Kling in LF. Travinski can DH. There is the risk of needing Travinksi at catcher, but Jones or Frey could handle that in the rare situation that Milazzo couldn't finish a game.

Because Kling has barely gotten on base since returning from injury. He’s 2/12 with 1 BB and 4 K. Overall he’s .167 in conference play.

I’m hoping this is a one off
Jays getting a pass when pm would have been blasted non stop

Jones has the 3rd highest fielding percentage, as well as the third highest batting average. Second in home runs and RBIs.
