I'm positive Dusty simply forgot that this was a 4 game series which is why Tucker was initially given the day off.
Should have waited until game 1 vs the Mariners to give King Tuck a day off but oh well. I never remember talking so much lineup cards every series when Hinch was here other than the incredible penmanship . There was always the move up or down when a player was struggling.
Rabble Rabble Rabble! Our lineup is 28-73 with 9 BB and 10 K versus Perez. Maldy and Yuli own this dude, Bregman does not.
Why on Earth would this young man need a day off. I guarantee he’s pissed that when he finally starts to break out, Dusty sits him. Man I wish he would retire.
It was going to happen at some point very soon regardless. He's the only Stro to play every inning in the field (and Dusty's got his "I don't consider DH days to be off days" thing).
