    Why not Brantley?

    My favorite player. If I were in charge, I would likely overplay him. Love his game. That swing is classic.

    Because it's too easy to play Brantley and actually have a great lineup? :)

    Dusty Baker likes having a better chance of losing, only thing that comes to mind

    I do forget that Dubon has over a 1.000 OPS for the last month. Just want to see Brantley get his AB's in for if we make the playoffs.

    Y'all realize if we don't part ways with Dusty, Maldonado will once again be our starting catcher next season., and the season after that.

    I loved when Correa and Altuve would do this, too.

    I rather flip Chas and Dubon... but what do I know? Dusty knows more baseball than all the posters and the front office combined.

    As long as Chaz is starting and Diaz is in place of Maldonado, then I'm fine with Dubon over Brantley.

    That's splitting hairs at this point.
    I would take this lineup everyday. As long as Maldonado is nowhere to be seen in the lineup or defensively in the field.

    they'll prolly lose, but at least they'll lose with the players we want to see/watch.

    At least he didn't clear out his locker and that the front office said that we will have to wait until tomorrow for additional details...

    He is an UFA. Crane and Brown would have to resign him first.
