    This lineup is going to be so stupid when Correa comes back Friday. Yordan on pace to drive in 105 RBI. With Correa in front of him and a scorching Yuli who is now tied for the team lead in RBI behind him....

    CF Springer
    2B Altuve
    3B Bregman
    LF Brantley
    SS Correa
    DH Alvarez
    1B Gurriel
    C Chirinos
    RF Reddick

    Gotta figure out a way to get Diaz ABs, too. Because the DH spot is solidified!

    The radio crew talked about Reddick at first, saying that he worked there in the spring. They said Baggwell worked with him also, “versatility “ was the key word.

    Gotta move Gurriel and Alvarez up a spot given their elite production. Correa goes to #7.

    Yes, this is not hidden knowledge. He's been the emergency 1B since he signed here, he got to play there once in '17.

    Alvarez (35) passes Pujols for most RBIs first 30 games in MLB history -- Albert had 34 in 2001.

    Doubtful that actually happens.

    In the end, the lineup sequencing won’t matter that much, other than the first inning.

    All of these guys should get a chance to hit wither runners on base.

    Do you really need to have it explained to you the difference between Reddick filling in for an inning in a blowout vs Reddick making 3-4 starts a week there?

    Pressly may go on the DL today. Hopefully just a very short stint if it happens.

    I don’t know the injury but he’s been out the last few games because of it. Not overly concerned about it.

    Yuli is projected to end the season with 40 doubles, 30 homers, 100 RBI and an .850 OPS.
