Evan Gattis is DHing today after catching three straight games.
His 2016 OPS as a DH: .571
His 2016 OPS as a C: 1.025
Just wow

I'd like to see his splits of DH vs. L/R and C vs. L/R, but I'm too lazy to look it up.

Gattis performing better as a catcher has nothing to do with the fact that he's catching. It's that he's platooning with Castro at catcher so he's facing a lot of LHP. At DH, he's facing RHP.
No place for logic in the DAT.

Pretty sure Gattis hit righties well catching during that stretch Castro was hurt.

The logic is, if he's going to DH he needs to do it vs LHP and Hinch isn't going to do that so its a moot point.
He shouldn't DH at all

No, thats not very logical at all. If Gattis is DHing vs lefties, that means Castro is playing catcher vs LHP. Why would you even consider doing that?
Edit: nevermind. I think I understand what you mean. But you wrote that in a very confusing way.

Yeah, sorry.
Basically Gattis shouldn't DH at all is the premise. The only case he should DH is vs LHP, but then Castro would have to go LvL.
Well just keep running out head against the wall instead

In hindsight: Trade for Lucroy, let Gattis serve as the backup catcher/DH vs LHP.
make Kastro somebody else's problem.

Announcers mentioned the throwbacks being worn tonight and then said that's why they didn't trade for Chris Sale

I was seriously hoping that was the plan. But, oh well.

The FA catcher market is shite. We've got no prospect ready to come up. I'm not sure if anyone will be available for trade during the off season but I'm afraid we're gonna be stuck with Castro with no other options available.

Tucker is still a clown show in LF. No reason Marwin shouldn't be out there
