Walker still not showing enough potential?

Good point. I guess they could go Wetherholt or Donovan 2B or 3B with Burly in LF, Walker in RF. Then Walker would bat sixth. What's your preference?

I wouldn’t rush JJ until at least September callups. Gorman at 3rd, Walker in right. Burly and Herrera rotate between DH and LF.

Have you finally come across to Burleson as a regular in the lineup? It's prudent to save a year of control with Wetherholt.

any lineup with VS2 isn't the best possible upside

I’ve said for a long time Burly is an every day player that should hit 6th or 7th in a contending lineup.

He may ultimately be a 350-400 at bat platoon type player, but right now he deserves to play every day.

For the Love of God thank you!! LOL
The lack of foresight combined with IMPATIENCE never ceases to amaze me!
Based on the daily ramblings of certain posters we’d need a 36 not 26 man roster to accommodate the obsessions.

Revren!

But leave JJW at AAA longer. No need to rush him.

Leave him there long enough not to start his click. I agree.

Assumes we have one

Dopey lineup. You are no better than MO. Dumb as Oli.

Not like VS is a lost cause. If he can keep improving his average and learn to take the occasional BB, he’d be a 50+ stolen base disruptive type. No other player we have has that potential from the speed and actual knack for base stealing. Not to mention GG level defense at a good spot for it.

You are a gutless weasel. What's your lineup?
