Rhymes needs to be moved down when JaCoCo comes back.

he is killing the front end of our lineup, and has grounded into way to many dp this year.

yep. Raph needs to sit for a game. And for the love of God, bunt him every time a guy is on first with less than 2 outs.

It would be cool if we could bat Mcmuffin 2nd.
I really like his swing.

Just needs to lay of the triple mentality.

Katz is too slow for Rhymes to be hitting behind him. Ibarra needs to be in Rhymes position and Rhymes behind Ibarra.

Rhymes should've hit into a lot more DPs this year especially early. He hits a lot of weak grounders and he got breaks at the beginning with a lot of errors off them. I wouldn't be opposed at putting Jacoby further up the lineup because when he gets contact on the ball it almost always seems like it's hit hard. No telling how he'll bat coming back though..

Nah.. I like the way it is.

I really like McMullen getting the most at bats period.

Rhymes will be fine.

McMullen CF
Jones 2B
Bregman SS
Katz 1B
Ibarra 3B
Moore DH
Ross C
Laird RF
Rhymes LF

I feel he would be good behind Laird due to Laird's speed, and McMullen forcing pitchers to pitch to Rhymes.

He really should be batting leadoff. He either hits a single on the ground or grounds into a double play.

Dude, you do not hit a career .360 hitter ninth, you are overreacting

Yeah a guy who is hitting over .400 for his career with runners in scoring position and is 3rd on the team in RBI needs to be moved or benched.

And Jones already proved this year that he shouldn't be hitting at the top of the order.

Retarded. Seems like just last month that we were wanting to replace JaCoCo and Ross...oh, wait, it was!

The DPs were bad, but Rhymes will be fine.

Stevenson, on the other hand...

it is not that he is bad, i think he is a great player and that could be a good fit for him in the lineup

Just when you fricks couldn't be dumber.

Let's bench one of the best hitters that's been at this school LOLLACAUST.
