Now he'll get to ride the bench for a few games so he can think about that great achievement.

Pages August slash line: .351/.413/.684. - yeah let’s bench that guy for the rookie.

I get the Oli hate. And I’m not pretending that Pages keeps that up, But come on now. Some on this board are more irrational than a scorned lover

Ok. Play the hot hand, Pages, put Herrera in LF, Noot in RF, Walker on the bench and Crooks at DH.
