1. Corey Dickerson (L) DH

2. Starling Marte (R) CF

3. Gregory Polanco (L) RF

4. Josh Bell (S) 1B

5. Francisco Cervelli (R) C

6. Adam Frazier (L) LF

7. Josh Harrison (R) 2B

8. Colin Moran (L) 3B

9. Adeiny Hechavarria (R) SS



Yesterday, Frazier's hot bat was kept on the bench so he could rest the day after a day off. Today Freese, hitting .362 since June 30, will be off for the 3rd time in 4 days. But Polanco, in a 2 for 18 tailspin will continue to bat 3rd. The rest of MLB has no chance against the superior managing of Clint Hurdle.

Wow, we have the DH today and still no Freese! I guess this game isn't very important.

And you have Cervelli playing a day game after a night game even though they have two other catchers on the roster.



Strange.

I can't wait til S-Rod get back from the DL then Clint will have another shot of mis-managing the team by starting S-Rod a couple days in a row. ;D

I have a bad feeling about today's game. Frazier, our hottest hitter right now (sorry Mr. Freese) struck-out on 3 pitches in the 1st. Ugh.

And no Marte today. We look to need quite a game from Mr. Archer.

Did they mention anything about Jordy? I wouldn't mind him getting off anyhow but I also know he was taken our early yesterday with something.

Last I heard, the announcers said they weren't sure if he or Marte were available to hit today.
