I can't even think what this could be, outside of batting the pitcher even higher than 8 I can't think of anything out of the box (for Joe Maddon) that he could do

Bote at SS, Caratini at 1B and Tommy at 2B is what I’m guessing.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

maybe that bryant guy will be playing

[UMFan83]

Happ, LF

LaStella, 2B

Baez, SS

Contreras, C

Bote 3B

Heyward, RF

Caratini, 1B

Mills, P

Almora, CF

 

Is my guess unless they are planning on calling someone up

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Javy definitely getting the day off tomorrow.

[TMan92]

Murphy could play 1st.

[Brian]

WOW, the lineup is so bad if you can predict it you have to take an Albert Almora autograph

Joe turning in his lineup card tonight:

Also, if Joe is saying the lineup is going to be crazy then he's probably got Brandon Kintzler playing second or something.

Why is Pat not working? Zaidman is making my ears bleed.

[Andy]

Those last 2 K's by Hamels were just freaking works of art.

[Andy]

Eat it, Nimmo.

[itisallpartoftheplan]

The Bautista trade already stings

Fell behind with lineup card orders.

[Derwood]

Rizzo is a BABIP machine this week

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Luckily Caratini leads off next inning.

[CubinNY]

Cole is dealing.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Imagine that, Jay Bruce looking like a Gold Glover at first against us now after looking like Clemente in the outfield against us for so long.

[UMFan83]

Hitting deGrom is hard enough without multiple moderately good defensive plays

[Derwood]

Cole is dealing.

 

So is DeGrom

[profisme]

They can't help but horsefeathers Schwarber over.

I almost forgot about his defensive exploits against the Cubs. At least him and Billy Hamilton can’t team up to destroy us anymore

[UMFan83]

19 pitches through 2. That’s not...good

[Old Style]

Schwarber has an incredible eye. Too bad the umpires don’t.

Schwarber has an incredible eye. Too bad the umpires don’t.

Umps need to start treating him like Votto, if he takes a pitch on the edges it’s likely a ball and should be called one.
