LINK per Luke Johnson.

Wish he would give Coomes more of a shot. Looks like Beau is done.

I like what I've seen from Watson. Also agree on Coomes, I think when he has gotten his chance he's outperformed Pap.

A bunch of slap hitters will fall short of Omaha this year!

Coomes definitely needs a shot. I've had enough of pap.

If you are talking about last night that was suppose to be a hit and run! Deichmann got left out to dry!

Why the switch of Duplantis going to LF and Breaux and Watson to C?

thanks.

pretty sure someone mentioned coomes having hip issue.

pap back to switch hitter makes no sense. i thought THAT was his problem last year?

Seems like his days are numbered unless a major turn around occurs. He is fighting it big time.

So PM is done with Beau Jordan. I have noticed Duplantis misjudging some balls in CF this year. He makes the catch but comes up looking baffled.

Manieri sure is giving Pap every single chance to stay in the lineup it seems.

I like these moves. Dup's arm must still be bothering him and this could help it heal. Breaux and Watson can cover more ground in CF as well as improve arm strength there. Pap's hitting hasn't benefitted from the righty only experiment and he has more pop from the left side when he does occasionally get into one.

People like Luken Baker (6'4" / 265) and Mitchell Traver (6'7", 255) tend to do that. They have 9 people that are 6'3" and above with the tallest one being 6'9".

Oh I'm so glad Pap is going back to switch hitting. It seemed to work so well for him last year.
