"Okay! What will my lineup look like today? Leadoff? Profar of course! #2? Probably the best #2 in baseball, Soto. Then Machado. Ha! Then Bell. Ha ha! Then Crone. Ha, ha ha! Now DRURY? Wow! Unfair. Okay! Do we have anything left? Alfaro? Nice! Next Grisham, his home runs and his bunts for basehits. Wait, maybe we should give the new guy a chance? He just came up today. What was his name? Fernando something? #9."
"Don't worry kid. We have a crazy lineup. You don't have to be a hero."

Quote from Randy Manese on August 3, 2022, 11:08 pmYou could almost feel the weight of carrying the offense lifted off the shoulders of Machado and Cronenworth and both really came through tonight. Snell was feeling it too and despite throwing over 100 pitches had ZERO walks and 9 K's. Our pitching staff is really going to benefit from this new and greatly improved line-up!

This is going to be fun
Do you know what I see when looking at this picture? Fernando Tatis having to earn his way up from the #7 spot in the lineup.
