re: Will Cannizaro walk Deichmann almost every at bat again?

Beau is the worst. Every so often he gets lucky but he is consistently bad. He swings at the worst pitches that is nowhere close to a strike. His best offense is to get hit by a pitch.

Sometimes a weak hitter is in the lineup because of his defense. But this is the DH. Hard to believe that there isn't any better options as a DH. Definitely a soft spot in the lineup.

Who would you bat in his place at this point?

Your only real options are Woley, Romero, and Slaughter (if/when Coomes goes back to 1st). Woley might not be a terrible option, but Romero has look worse than Jordan this season, which is a shame considering some of his play last season. Other than those three you've got Reid and Breaux with any sort of experience. Don't think anyone else is left on the postseason roster as an option.
