There's probably 3-4 people who would at least contribute something better than 1-20. If they are intentionally walking people to get to you, then you aren't a threat

Who exactly do you plan to put at first base...


Ethan Frey is a 1B.

Then you have other options at DH.

I don’t want him benched but 1B is probably the position that we have the most guys that can play. Jones, Brown, Larson, Frey, Beck (remember when people on here talked about how useful he could be then he disappeared again)

You don't bench him. You could move him down in the order.

Hopefully he still comes up huge in this game.

That play is why Bear doesn’t sit. But he should be moved down in the lineup.

Hernandez can play 1st. Arrambide can catch.

This is the problem. Jones never comes out to give others reps. I don’t think we can bench him but he needs to be batting in the back half.

why you wouldn't give others meaningful reps at 1B over the early Spring is nut numbing...I mean mind numbing!
