Phillies come to the Globe May 16-18

That's a weird take. Hoying is naturally a CFer and plays there routinely. Rua utility IF and Corner OF specialist who cannot really hit, so he's not multiple starts in CF any time soon. Delino is a converted OFer who is better suited for LF than he is for CF. None of them are going to hit that well to justify all the PAs they will get, so I would rather take Hoying in CF since that's his actual position.

Didn't you say earlier that you expected Hoying to be brought up and for Delino to get the starts in CF while Rua started in LF? Seems like I remember you saying that.

I just figured delino would go to center and Rua to left.

I got the idea that most everyone on here thought that before Banny inserted Hoying into the lineup 2 days in a row.

My thought was and is that Joey will go to LF when AB returns and I think Banny never had Rua in mind to play LF. It would be natural to think otherwise if Adrian didn't come back. Hence Banny needed a natural CF till Cargo returns and a LF who's hot right now. Seems reasonable to me.

GameDay had Joey looking at one damn near dead center.

People were saying Rua should get a shot with Gomez out and I kind of agreed. Nobody wanted to see Hoying called up and if he did they just wanted him to provide depth, but it seems like rooster is going to put him in every day. Which is what nobody wanted to see.

Perhaps you misunderstood my question......Where's the humor?

Naw, I'm meshing with ya, but still. It's a game; nothing more or less. ONE GAME.

IMO, you make a whole cake with very few ingredients.

Cashner getting lots of key ground balls
