Re: 6/18/9 vs Braves

The two worst OBPs among position players on the entire roster hitting 1-2. Sad enough they are even in the lineup. Worse yet they hit at the very top.

Re: 6/18/9 vs Braves

If we're not supposed to comment on lineups...I'm sorry.

But Hanigan at 5th is a change.

Re: 6/18/9 vs Braves

I'm getting the Braves announcers and they're talking about how much they all love David Ross.



Give it time, gentlemen. Give it time.

Ross as a backup isn't bad. I kind of like the braves announcers.

Oh yeah as a back-up his is alright, but I get the feeling that they could fall into the trap of thinking Ross the part-time catcher could be anything more than that if McCann goes down or ever struggles.

So you're saying his .982 OPS buoyed by a .400 BABIP *might* not have legs?

Re: 6/18/9 vs Braves

Ross is going to get some rips off a lefty with very little, like Maloney.
