re: How many third strikes has Kling looked at this year?

That was a very thought out and reasonable argument Fredbull kudos. Where I would differ with you is Kling had significant at bats last year not a starter but played. This year he has been the main centerfielder and the patern of hitting in non SEC games and not being able to hit SEC pitching has continued and actually he has regressed. My argument would be start Brown...I know I catch grief about his .100 SEC batting average. But I think any reasonable person other than Lester would realize that 10 at bats for a freshman does not give a decent sample size especially compared with the at bats Kling received last year and the 45 at bats he has had in SEC play this season. After that many at bats he is what he is.
As far as I know Brown is the only other choice in centerfield besides Bingham and Bing is a senior so not going to help next season. Also Brown is fast and has a cannon for an arm so why wouldn't you give him a couple of series in a lost season to see if he can hit. If you are aware of another option on team now that would be back next year I am open to that as well but to keep putting Kling out there and watching him fail over and over makes no sense to me.

Again you have made a reasonable thought out argument I just feel there is a better option.
