I never said move Freemen to leadoff. Easiest fix is to switch Pap and Freemen in the lineup. You want Pap batting with bases loaded with 2 outs or less or Freemen? Well we scored zero runs last night in that scenario twice last night.

We had zero hits with the bases loaded last night but Pap drew a bases loaded walk to bring in one run.

Didn't Pap walk the first time and Freeman ended the inning with bases loaded.

Hindsight is great, I'm sure if they could have predicted that Pap would be up w/ the bases loaded twice they would have put one of the Jordan's, Romero, Robinson.... in that position.

I do not disagree with the idea that Freeman should be batting earlier in the line-up; however, I have never been a fan of having your worst batter in the 9 hole. He essentially kills innings before the top of your line-up gets to the plate. Plus, Pap had been doing pretty decent until last night.

I think what's killing us right now is we have too many cold bats too close in the line-up. Romero, Deichmann, Jordan & Pap were all batting within 5 spots and have all been inconsistent at best the past few weeks. There has to be a way to shake that up, and if PM thinks Wofford is batting better than Jordan, then why isn't he in the DH spot instead of Romero?
