    Does Brantley get the twofer day off against the lefty? Dusty can't help himself closing a series with a day off the next day. If McCormick can go,he'll play. Diaz is almost certain to play. He might sit both Brantley and Alvarez.

    Maybe something like this?

    POS L/R/S PLAYER OBP SLG OPS+ WAR
    2B R ALTUVE, Jose 350 489 129 3.6
    SS R CORREA, Carlos 370 481 133 5.5
    DH R GURRIEL, Yuli 377 475 134 2.8
    1B R DIAZ, Aledmys 352 485 128 2.0
    CF R MEYERS, Jake 349 590 153 0.5
    RF R MCCORMICK, Chas 319 466 113 1.5
    LF R JONES, Taylor 258 402 79 0.0
    3B R WILSON, Jacob 154 385 41 0.0
    C R MALDENADO, Martin 284 316 66 0.5

    BENCH
    RF L BRANTLEY, Michael 375 466 131 3.0
    DH L ALVAREZ, Yordan 352 534 140 2.6
    C L CASTRO, Jason 331 347 88 0.5

    Not a line-up. PURE SPECULATION

    Dusty hack your account? We need this win and you're benching both Alvarez and Brantley? Crazy and it will probably be something like that

    I was wrong yesterday because of McCormick's hand injury. I hope I'm wrong today.

    Who knows, now that Bregman has denied immediate activation, it might just happen. They like to keep us guessing.

    As long as the A's and yankees are winning, each game is a must win.

    Not really… but the same people who were scoreboard watching in April are still doing so now, so no sense in changing things.

    note - He was out of position on the clips of his workout (2B) unless they just caught the super shift practice.

    He has that Seattle look going. Chris Cornell was from Seattle.
    Ferris Bueller brought the whole world to their knees with his war games all in Seattle.

    The good throw he made in the first inning was the only ball he touched the whole game.
