Issue is the ESPN game has to start at 6:30 so a game played in front of it would have to be stopped at around 5:30 no matter where it was

Yeah but what's the likelihood of a 5.5 hour game?

Could have a possible weather delay. I'm just repeating what he said on the radio.

Seriously, Nola is ridiculously good. He's only given up runs in two games this season.

I'm not gonna dwell on it after this thread, but do you honestly believe that McMullen is a better lead off hitter than Stevenson could be, given the chance? Sciambra in the five hole?

Yes. What we've seen from Stevie is in the 6-8 spots where he isn't expected to do much. His speed, his good contact... both suggest leadoff material. But there's more to being a leadoff. It's a mindset as much as a skill.

I fully understand that. Are we concluding that Stevenson isn't capable of that mindset? CPM obviously knows his players better than we do, but if he was willing to put Bregman up there, why not at least give it a try. Hell, it's not like we're a run scoring machine right now.

Stevenson doesnt work counts enough. I think he should hit 5th

It's hard to work a count when hit and run is called within 2 pitches of your at bat.

Nobody on this team works the count.

Yeah, not sure what stevenson brings.....other than speed that people want to see in the leadoff spot. He Ks alot, doesnt work counts, and has been successful where he is in the lineup.
