Reverse splits for Cease.
RH's are better against him this year.
Samr reason Walker replaced Mootbaar.

I would think the fact that he is a defensive disaster is part of it.
and he's gonna get better with inconsistent playing time? what happened to the runway?

edit: unless they dont wanna do a day game after a night game due to his back.. maybe
I'd say Saggese is on that runway also
He deserves an equal opportunity to fail

Consistency hasn’t been his strength. Maybe he starts consistency today.
Overall he averages out to a solid back of rotation guy. I'll go on a limb and say Good Pallante shows for a 6/2 outing.

Fair. The splits are small.
Now explain the outfield. VS isn't superman.
Pallante can't miss the bats well enough, SD makes
league leading contact. AP must be thrilled.

SD is arm wrestling a weak old man here and
can only be embarrassed with a loss.

Not much to explain.
STL outfield is awful - regardless of who The Marmot sticks out there.

I agree, he is a utility player.

More stupid Oli lineups.

Unless Norman's back is acting up he needs to be at 3rd base every game and not Saggesse (.237 .279 .340 .619) who's JAG. :roll:
Because Oli's an idiot who has no clue what he's doing. Unless, of course, as said, Gorman's back is acting up in which case DH or bench bat is likely the only chance he has to be an MLB regular.

Bench the Golden Boy Donnie? You cray-cray? Donny's a gamer. He plays through it until he comes out of it or hits the IL.

Benches are for guys who need playing time. The Oli Way.
