Let's Go Jays!!!!

They are outside the playoff picture right now and have looked rather uninspiring for a while. In fact, they are only two games over .500 (52-50) since April 29!

I don’t understand why Schneider is only good enough to play once a week but when he does play he’s also good enough to bat 5th?

 

At least he’s in the game. Hopefully he can shake the rust off.

Joined this Board in July 2013 and have never done a GDT.

 

Might have to break one out if we don't win today and try to get some good mojo brewing.

First game I've been to in years

 

Was really hoping the roof would be open

 

But a win is more important :)

 

They'll probably open the roof at game time or soon after.

so you do believe in Schnediers bat? or don't you ffs

 

batting him 5th after sitting for a week

 

GIVE HIM A GOOD RUN, we've seen enough of biggio and espinal

He also hit RHP much better than LHP the last two seasons in the minors, so there’s absolutely no reason to strictly platoon him.

 

This season has been really annoying overall.

Current management is clueless. Clean house for the most part, starting with Atkins. This team needs a new outlook, starting with a new overall plan/approach at the plate.

Schneider's usage as a platoon bat vs lefties continues to make no sense, considering his entire minor league track record before getting called up suggested that he hits better vs RHP than LHP.

Well there's a great example of the pot calling the kettle black...

Since May 1st, Biggio's hit better than Vlad, Springer, Whit and KK

would Horowitz outperform vlad RoS? Would the Rays bench Vlad for him or some combination of players?

 

Yes, but calling up Horwitz isn't necessary yet. Lineup against non-high velo righties should be:

LF Whit

SS Bo

DH Belt

RF Springer

2B Schneider

CF Varsho

3B Chapman

C Jansen/Kirk

1B Biggio

Probably. I am mainly looking at Horwitz's BB% and SO% and they indicate there is a good chance he would not be overmatched in the majors. He is unlikely to be a star, but hopefully can produce similar results to Noda.
