Where the hell is Blinken? Don't tell me he's on the IL, too!
I trust you've seen the famous molten version at Tanglewood in 1970?
I think that's pretty rational actually. Dalbec seems a better defender at 3B than Reyes.
I can't think so, but who knows. It really can't be for "rest," since they're off tomorrow. Presumably see Yoshida once Perez is out of the game.
It is lefty vs. lefty, but with Perez, you have 3 - 4 seconds to see what the pitch is.
At least you have company
I remember about twenty years ago, someone made the argument for batting pitchers eighth, and that the number nine hitter should basically be a second leadoff hitter. Was that a LaRussa thing?
If I had to guess, Cora is protecting Yoshida a bit. He’s been a bit better the past couple of games, and maybe doesn’t want the lefty to throw him off whatever mojo he has.
