Finally took Schwarber out of the lead off spot

[BelmontShore]

Fucking finally. Holy hell.

[BelmontShore]

Schwarber has no damn clue what he's doing out there.

Walker looking good so far
Offense struggling against another pitcher with a high era
sigh

At this point, when Harper is ready to start throwing. I would put him in LF, to reduce the stress on his arm because the throws are shorter. Also, they aren't going to take Castellanos out of the lineup for Schwarber. If they feel like Harper can play first, Bohm can go back to 3rd, but Sosa would be benched for Schwarber. If Schwarber continues to hit poorly, and Panche is healthy, I prefer to see him, because he is faster, a better defender and was starting to hit.

[BelmontShore]

Seriously. It's like clockwork around here.

Trash a player for his lacking performance and he winds up with a monster outing.

Have yourself a day, Kyle Schwarber.

Gee whiz,Skip. What the hell were you waiting for dropping him down in the order?

[wrench248]

Schwarber more productive in the 5 spot

Why did it take so long?

[FolesMVP09]

Let Strahm pitch the 9th - no Kimbrel
