DC

Streaky, Pearson give you legs and better defense. I would be fine with either, but with the struggles of the bottom 3rd of the lineup, I see no reason not to go full power 1-7

Why?

Because when Jobert is bad he's really bad at the plate. When he's on, he's great. Pearson gives some speed and better defense.

Wind blowing in at 15 MPH and getting worse on defense with Jones replacing Tre at 1st? Nah

Strikes out a lot, like Jobert. Got in a slump and benched and never really got another chance, unlike Jobert.


Bear has more power.

Jones played fine at 1st. You would also be upgrading RF with Pearson instead of Jobert in RF in a bullpen game against a good hitting team

You can’t take Tre off of first. He’s been invaluable there, saving runs and making plays

15-20 mph winds out of the SE is why you don’t go full power

Yeah DC hitting a homer down the RF line really shows that.


You dance with the one who brung ya. How has our bunting played out?

You've got an ESE wind which is pretty much in from left but across the OF into right.

Jobert can run into one and wrap it around the foul pole, similar to Dylan's last night.

Bear pulls everything. He's not hitting one into the teeth of the wind.

Well not to trash Jones, but he didn’t bring us here. So why would we roll with him now?

The scouting report is out on Bear. Offspeed and he's almost guaranteed to strikeout. I feel way more confident with Jobert at the plate, and it means that Tre stays at first.

While I agree that that is his position, his fielding % is 1 point higher than Jones. And that's with him playing a not insignificant amount of time in LF

Bear probably can knock one into the wind. Not just him either.
But it would have to be more of a liner than a high fly.

You still don’t play him. Wake pitched us at the knees. Lots of breaking balls too.
That’s not a good matchup for Jones.
