Nothing against Dusty, but you would think Hanigan gets to bat somewhere besides 8th. He is probably one of the most solid hitters on the team (only 29 strikeouts for the year).

Catcher bats 8th

The CF and SS must contain the top 2 spots in the order.

Can't have lefty lefty in the middle of the lineup ever....but can often have 6 or 7 righties in a row.

Few will disagree with you but most have accepted Dusty's rules.

Playing a man short again.

Did Rolen make it out of bed without assistance this morning?

I can almost see it with other players, doing the day-to-day dance, but not with Rolen. He could use a 15-day break anyhow. Just DL him. Get someone up here that can help the team. And let Rolen have a couple weeks off to rest up for the stretch drive.

Gotta wonder what Latos is drawing on the mound with his finger before the first pitch. He does it every game.

Latos certainly looked in complete control in the first.
