Does Fields come back in to start? Or has his batting production done him in? He's fast as shite in the yard and a pretty badass fielder. Do YOU leave him on the bench?

Foster? Why not leave Katz in CF?

if we are looking for offense then foster and fields are a push...
katz would give us the best option for offense with edwards in right

BUT!!!
1. we saw in the top of the 11th that katz is a hazard
2. we have seen foster get embarrassed by a few balls that fields makes look routine

keep fields and adjust accordingly

I like Katz in CF because I don't think Foster will bring anything to the plate.

He looked pretty shaky out there too though.

Fields HAS to play center. He gives you nothing at the plate but I don't trust Foster and Katz can't cover that much ground.

Or in the outfield. We just have to bite the bullet and go with Fields IMO. Don't think PM wants to shift the outfield and infield this late.

While I agree with your assessments of Kats in center, I feel we need bats behind KG more.

with Gausman pitching offense is at a premium. Sit Fields.

That's my line of thinking also. IMO Fields is just a DP away from a base hit. That sounds harsh, but I'm nervous as shite every time he's in the box.

It's actually the other way around. Gausman will shut them down so you can afford to play Fields.

Katz in center is not an option. People need to forget that. Foster doesn't bring anything more to the plate than Fields does and Foster is a much worse defender. It's going to be Fields.

No brainer: it's Fields. If he can get on base even once, it's a bonus.
