Game 1 is against Snell. He torched us in the regular season and he's even better now. You have to throw everything out the window. All the most recent stats and how guys are running do not matter. We have to get him out of the game. Stack righties, bring in the lefties once we get into the pen.
Springer RF, Schneider 2B, Vlad 1B, Bo DH, Kirk C, Clement SS, Lukes LF, IKF 3b, Varsho.
Schneider batting 2nd not Clement. Clement swings early and often and Snell won't put anything in the zone and clement puts the ball in play off balls outside the zone. Schneider has better pitch recognition and might work a walk. He'll see more pitches. Lukes lefty righty splits weren't that significant. He's making good contact this post season, so he's in. Varsho is an auto out. He's been better against lefties this year. Most i leave him 5th or 6th, but he's an auto out against Snell.
