This is a weird line up. Two back ups playing the field with Marte not starting and Polanco as the DH.

I didn't understand weakening the defense in a non familiar ballpark. I also didn't think Jaso would ever play the outfield again.

Usually, since NL teams don't have that extra big bat on their bench they play the best defensive player. Jaso is not a better fielder than Polanco. Why not DH Bell if you want Jaso in the line up.

I said it.

The two can't be compared talent-wise. But I prefer Frazier for this team. Until Marte plays better than Frazier.

Great job by Kontos! He's really changed the effectiveness of the pen.

Too bad he's not allowed to pitch the 8th after just 8 pitches. But the formula must be followed.

On the FAN, they said Hurdle said he wants to rest the OFers' legs on the Toronto turf. As usual with Hurdle, it's all about rest.

Are you saying Frazier has more talent? If not, then why play the lesser talent?

Beat Strohman in Toronto to start the series?

I'll take that!
