2014 Offseason

Wonder what this means for Peguero.

I have no statistical evidence to back any of this up, but it seems like jacking with the lineup on a regular basis produces inconsistent results.

I think the statistical evidence would be a very small sample size because it is very rarely done. That isn't the "baseball way".

I like Bannister's idea here. I guess we will see how it works.

I like it better than the robotic lineup Wash put out there even when it would not be working.

Rua and Smolinski have made team. Wright released.

I like this.

Near the end he was throwing out a different lineup every day.

Answers that..

It was a lost cause by then.

Yea ... sticking with David Murphy batting 6th or 7th worked out a whole lot better.

It was hilarious the year where Wash would have to put in other second basemen when Kinsler was hurt and no matter who the second baseman was he would hit leadoff because that was where Kinsler hit.

I thought about that earlier as well. He would actually do that with a number of positions.

Little League coaches don't even do that.

Bennie -- after posting I went back and looked at Andres Blanco 2010 game logs when he subbed for mainly Kinsler when he was on the DL for large part of August. There are times he was an in game sub batting #2 ... but when he had a CG at 2B ... he batted 8th for the most part.

Good work by whoever is 3b coach pointing out to Choo where 3d base was.

I'm not sure which year it was.

 

[Windingmywatch]

I think Smolinski is after a starting in one corner ... or the other. 2 for 3 with 1 R and 1 RBI ... now .367 for the spring

I heard on the radio two days ago DeShields had already made the team and was the announced opening day starter in CF (due to the dreaded Lefty-lefty match up). Martin will be our CF day-in-and-out.

Don't remember who said it, but it was on 105.3, and they quoted Bannister.
