I did. Along with several others. Sorry I didn't write a thesis out for you. Not my fault you don't seem to understand basic baseball strategy.

Do you have any other thoughts on the matter
Sure. Its baseball. It can be analyzed to death. I gave you the simplest form of the answer just like the others did. Jay wants to ensure that Tommy and Bear get as many as bats as possible which is somehow hard for you to understand. That means they go at the top of the lineup where you cant put anyone in front of them. Sure, you could move Milam and Larson down to be in front of them when the lineup turns over but then you are cutting down on their at bats. Kling's and Milazzo's OBP are .415 and .380 respectively. Those are really good numbers. Its not like he has Hal Hughes down there. I would be ok with Larson at the top followed by White and Jones but you cant take ABs away from your 2 best hitters, which is what you are advocating for.
You're acting like this is some off-the-wall never before seen stuff having your best hitters leading off
quote:
I agree that our worst hitters should be batting last to keep them from at bats as much as possible..
So by stating that, one would assume that you agree that the inverse is true. That your best hitters(Tommy/ Bear) should be batting first to get the most at bats.
quote:
The question is why don't we have betters hitters batting in front of What/Bear so they have someone to drive in.
Because you have to start somewhere.... Knowing what you literally JUST said, I dont see how this is an actual question
quote:
So yes, you are right, why is White batting first behind our two worst hitters.
You cant be "first behind". He's batting first to ensure more at bats...
quote:
The likelihood of him coming to bat with no body on base is very high. That is what should be avoided, I think.
Not as high as missing out completely on at bats
