    Hitting cleanup implies you want him to hit 4th.

    Shuffling around the 1-3 is largely going to end up with very similar results. Springer leading off makes sense because of his walk tool and his vastly superior ability to get on base. But at the same time, hes not the steal threat Altuve is, and unless the 7-9 guys consistently get on, his team leading HR ability could get marginalized.

    It's very likely the best 1-3 in baseball. If they had a bonafied cleanup hitter, they very well could survive with literally only half a lineup.

    Gomez is a completely different hitter when he keeps his head in.

    Surprised he went with Kemp there, but he goes up and does his job.

    Nice job, Kemp.

    Give Luke another 3-run save chance... he may be the best closer in baseball in 3 run lead situations.

    Ironic that the guy he pinch-hit for was supposed to be "mr. contact" as well...

    Well the way he's been pitching, 3 or more is what we need to be safe.

    You mean that one run he has allowed in his last 7 innings?

    Getting that runner home from third was big and what we wasn't doing earlier in the year.

    ^^^^^ smart ass gregerson only fans. Don't show me stats. Gregerson is not a closer who makes you feel comfortable with any lead. Lol.

    That hit the knob.

    No hand. Could we have challenged that?
