so bench him against the guys he get on base better against.

As far as unaccpetable for a 5 hitter, I guess you cant bat two guys like 22 million dollar heyward 8th.

He is not leading off.

Actually OBA at the top SLG on the middle. That is as stupid as leading off with Javy who avg's more HR's than BB per year.

Rangers will have 6 lefties in lineup tonight.
I think they should of went with Quintana this series, we'll see how Darvish handles this.
Might be needing Monty early in this one along with Rosario to eat up some innings

They need to worry about CHC rolling another dozen.

Looking forward to seeing what Darvish has in a regular season game. The stuff looked nasty in ST.

Only problem I have with Bryant hitting 2nd is that he wont have many opportunities to drive in runs, especially with the pitcher hitting 9th.

Wonder if Maddon going to drop him to 3rd and Rizzo 4th when they start playing NL teams..
also would prefer Rizzo to hit in front of Bryant because he more of an OB guy (walks/HBP)
