He and Winn are both out of sync.

With him you at least know it's temporary. Winn could be in for a sophomore slump.

I know this will attract those who (incorrectly) think where a player hit in the order doesn't matter.

BUT

In his career, WillyC hitting #2:
.234 .334 .446 .780

Other than hitting 7th, this is his worse slash line.

It's very obvious WillyC and Donovan should be flipped w/Contreras in the #3 hole (.842 career OPS) where he belongs.

But this stupid theory hitting MOTO hitters in the #2 spot has infiltrated Oli's brain and he needs to correct it ASAP.

Noot
Donovan
WillyC
NADO
Hererra

That's your correct 1 - 5 (IMO) and I don't give a c ra p about the stupid L-R-L-R baloney either, put your hitters in the spot where their strengths can be maximized!

Cue scouty in 3-2-1............... :mrgreen:

Lol. Also, tell us how he will hit when the weather warms up.

Rock going all Goldy can't hit based on place in batting order...after 2 games. :lol:

I think his defense at first has been very good. It's only two games. Maybe he needs to change the tape he was chewing on. I've never seen that before.

Says the guy complaining the last two seasons about Goldie batting 2nd.

Goldie hit freaking lead off for the yanks yesterday.and was 2-3 w a double and HR.

Lineup order really doesnt matter if the players are vets.

How many fewer RBI’s would Ruth have had batting leadoff his entire career?

Well sure it is. Scott and Winn have an OBP % of .250 and .125……Noot and Donovan have .667 and .333
Why would you ever have a Slugging hitter batting leadoff?

It's about if X player can produce in different spots in the order.

Well a prime Goldy, Ruth, Pujols,……most productive spot in a batting order is NEVER leadoff. 20% of season PA are guaranteed 0 opportunities with runners on base

Why are you citing OBP after two games as reason for anything?
