    Solid bat flip by Valbuena. Nothing special, just solid.

    Glad Hinch decided we need Gomez's bat in the lineup.

    Ugh Gomez

    Bregman and Gurriel can't get here soon enough

    gomez feels like such a predictable out every time. At least he's a FA..i'd be shocked if we made any attempt to sign him.

    No way he's back. Get ready for Lourdes Gurriel.

    Agreed would rather not see him in the lineup but the alternatives aren't any better. Castro can't hit lefties to save his life. Reed and Worth haven't exactly impressed anyone. Just gotta wait for Bregman to come up

    Who else you going to put in?

    Castro .439 OPS vs LH?
    Reed 0-8 against LH?
    Worth .554 OPS vs LH?

    Wow... Jakes bat went further and did more damage than most of his hits.
