Doesn't help that the manager can't manage the 3-5 spots to save his [expletive] life. What would you change about it? He moved Byrd down, Pena you gotta think will eventually start hitting for power. And hasn't Soto said he prefers to hit 8th? Well today the big issue is having a hitter who has a career .674 OPS against righties hitting 4th for you against a righty. I just looked up his splits to get an exact number...holy crap he has one of the most extreme splits ever. Career .674 against righties, .920 against lefties. Oh, I agree with that, I think my 2nd post in this game thread was asking why Baker was batting 4th, especially against a righty. I'm not a fan of Quade, no way should Baker be hitting 4th ahead of Soriano, Byrd, Pena, and Soto, even if Soto prefers to hit 8th. Soto is a damn good hitter and won't get [expletive] to hit hitting 8th, I don't get it.
