At 17 each....Edwin Encarnacion and Brandon Phillips.
Our lineup is designed very well right now, even though these guys are sometimes 7 and 8 in the order.
I'm glad Narron knows that guys who get on base a lot, should bat in front of players who will drive them in. In other words, don't bat Dunn 6th or 7th.
Also, Phillips is not an on-base guy, he is going to hit the ball. So bat him in a spot where people will be on base ahead of him. I have no problem with him batting 7th right now, even though he is our hottest hitter. He is getting MAJOR chances to drive in runs, and he is taking advantage.
Sure, I didn't post this yesterday when we got shutout, but we have a good lineup that will succeed most of the time. Nature of the beast.
