Why can't Cruz get injured? Why all of the good players? Mark Ellis and Crawford continue to be out? ugh. I guess it is easier to simulate top of the order production than the middle of the order for a short period but we need them back.
Now that I think about it, Thursday is an off day so 3 days off in a row is a good thing for CC. Get ready to put one in the cove on Friday, Carl.
Yeah but have we gotten any update? It could be they sit him regardless because they are worried. Is it precautionary rest or are they waiting him out still?
They already said it was precautionary and Don mentioned the off day on Thursday. He should be back on Friday.
obamanotbad.jpg Keith laws article a couple days ago (mostly referencing Tangos book "The Book: Playing the Percentages in Baseball") suggests you should bat your best hitter 2nd and your 2nd best hitter 4th for various reasons such as batting runs, estimating runs gains or runs lost etc..Only equates to 10-15 runs a year so 1 win but the argument is you want to get your best hitter the most AB--and most AB especially at the end of games. So Crawford, Kemp, Hanley, Gonzalez, Ethier, AJ, MEllis, Uribe, P Sounds good to me
