Clement provides great D even when he isn’t hitting. That’s pretty much the difference. Plus gotta look at who would be playing his position (3b/2b) if he’s on the bench. We have a bunch of OF options but less IF options
This series is huge.
Can be a big swing in the standings, we either come out of this:
6 games ahead if we sweep
4 games ahead if we go 2-1
2 games ahead if we go 1-2
tied with the Yanks if they sweep
All 4 of them can show flashes of dominance from time to time. Just gotta hope they have an ON night during a playoff start. And manager needs a quick hook if things start going south.
