I’m thinking a lineup shift is in order -

And here is what I would suggest.

#1 Bradfield lead off is obvious - try to encourage less loft, more legs.
2 Hewitt or Vastine - both are 2 of our better situational hitters. (We don’t have enough situational hitters.) I’d try Vastine here if Hewitt is not starting. With Bradfield focused on getting on base - we need situational hitters here for sac and hit and run.

#3 Schreck - not seeing good pitches because #4 is hitting about.125 behind him the last 3 weeks.

#4 Diaz - our best hitter lately. Put him behind Schreck to give Schreck a chance.

Noland #5 dependable and some pop

#6 Polk or Hewitt

Even if it’s just superstition - the current lineup is adrift. How could a change hurt?

#7. Austin

#8 Espy

#9 Vastine or Hewitt - whichever isn’t #2 or Maldo - if both are plugged in above.

Other thoughts? Perhaps a pregame bonfire?

Fed up with this bunch. Here is what I'd start.

#1 CF T.J. McKenzie
#2 LF Calvin Hewett
#3 RF Troy LaNeve
#4 FB Chris Maldonado
#5 C Alan Espinal
#6 3B Davis Diaz
#7 2B Matt Wolfe
#8 SS Raymond VelazQuez
#9 DH Cooper Holbrook
P Nick Maldonado

No one else is doing shit, might as well give others a chance and maybe wake up the starters.

Well, LaNeve and McKenzie DID figure in the win in a big way!
