Meh doesn’t matter Scott is hitting .182 against them and hampson is hitting .158 against them this season so not any better and slightly worseCusecards wrote: ↑25 Jun 2025 16:43 pm Hampson- If you were ever going to start the guy this would be it. Scott is the everyday guy but he has been brutal vs LH pitching. Tough lefty on the mound.
Saggese- Like Hampson it is RH bat vs LH pitcher.
So it comes down to the other LH bats and who sits vs the LH starter:
Burleson- no way he sits. He has been crushing it.
Donovan- no way he sits. Has been one of your best bats all year.
Nootbaar/Gorman- Noot has picked it up but so has Gorman. I like the choice of Gorman because we NEED to find out who he is!
Yeah, and he's no Scott defensively. Not many are.Ozziesfan41 wrote: ↑25 Jun 2025 16:50 pmMeh doesn’t matter Scott is hitting .182 against them and hampson is hitting .158 against them this season so not any better and slightly worseCusecards wrote: ↑25 Jun 2025 16:43 pm Hampson- If you were ever going to start the guy this would be it.

It was either play Noot or Gorman and the plan is probably to alternate them today and tomorrow against two lefty starters.JuanAgosto wrote: ↑25 Jun 2025 16:29 pm Mo, the strategist, and Lil oli can't help themselves. Why are they starting a guy who was just signed yesterday? Why is Nootbaar sitting now that his bat is showing life? I don't care about lefty/right [nonsense] when guys are hitting. Utter stupidity from these fools.
So might as well gove scott some rest since he struggles vs them anyways. Dont want to burn the guy out starting 150+ games in heatOzziesfan41 wrote: ↑25 Jun 2025 16:50 pmMeh doesn’t matter Scott is hitting .182 against them and hampson is hitting .158 against them this season so not any better and slightly worseCusecards wrote: ↑25 Jun 2025 16:43 pm Hampson- If you were ever going to start the guy this would be it.

I think that the push was to get Saggese a start.3dender wrote: ↑25 Jun 2025 17:15 pmIt was either play Noot or Gorman and the plan is probably to alternate them today and tomorrow against two lefty starters.JuanAgosto wrote: ↑25 Jun 2025 16:29 pm Mo, the strategist, and Lil oli can't help themselves.
