Lineup tonight against Ohtani on national TV: Not a fan of Kemp in center (or right). If Jake and Reddick are both sitting, why can't we have Springer in center, Kemp at left, and Marwin at right? I want no part of Kemp outside LF/2B, sorry, but he's a liability. Altuve DH'ing, Gurriel at 2B. The Shark returns to the field.
You've already proven a strong Pro-Giles sentiment. So, of course, you will use adjectives which are generally positive. The Rockets shooting Game 7 was notorious and embarrassing.
Agree, not a fan of that outfield positioning. I would rather Jake play CF, Kemp LF, Margo 2nd and just give Tuves the day off. I am definitely good with Reddick getting some asstime on the bench.
Kemp has done enough of the little things on O to keep him playing as much as possible. Started the 5 run 8th yest, keeps finding ways to get on base. Jake is a good late inning replacement but a rally killer. Kemp has shown hops and good coverage in the outfield, not going to hold it against him if he isn't kiermaier. I like this lineup offensively with McCann and gattis benched.
Hinch loves to get cute with his lineups and defensive positioning. Gurriel should be at 3rd. Bregs at 2nd. Marwin at 1st. White already penalized us for being too short for first base.
Ruled an infield hit. No errors so far, Bregman, unfortunately, while a great defender, has struggled at times on routine plays. Throw was wide. Was it catchable for White? Regardless, tough play for the 1B.
