Are we looking at rotating Kling, Brown, and Pearson in the OF the rest of the way?

Coach has basically said that Pearson is staying in the lineup now that we are in “playoff baseball.”
He likes how he performs in big moments
Larson is obviously other outfielder.
I guess Brown, Kling, and Bingham battling for other spot

Kling should be the odd man out, not Bingham. He has been fairly consistent all season (not great).

Pearson has turned a corner and now hitting with runner’s on base. No need taking him out. I have no issue platooning Brown and Kling depending on RHP or LHP unless one of them sets themselves apart. I think Kling is the better fielder and seems to get on base more. But I wouldn’t mind Brown swapping in hoping he starts seeing the ball.

I don’t really care what they do with CF as long as they stop putting any of those guys at leadoff. Hide them in the lineup and consider us lucky if they do anything at the plate. That 8 hole is a perfect spot for anyone we have playing CF currently

They’ve been rotating all season

My question did not ask about the past.

Larson and Pearson are mainstays in the corners. Pick your poison with Kling or Brown

I would expect Bingham to be in the lineup before Kling. Kling seems to be on the outside looking in mostly going to be used as a defensive replacement.

Sounds good but less Kling

Unless those guys have frogs in their pockets that play baseball, then yes.

Assuming there is no error in my calls, the differences are not significant and probably favor Kling as of late despite what tRant thinks.

So less of the best performer outside of Pearson in the last month?

Are you just a fan of diving 5 feet in front of fly balls and letting them roll to the wall?
Kling is 10x the defensive OF Bingham is. Pearson is good not elite, and Larson is a true freshman. 1/3 of the outfield needs to be elite defense.

You just can’t have Bingham in CF unless you’re playing at Tennessee.

Brown Bingham Larson are your other 3 OFs from here on out with big game Josh holding down 1 spot permanently. I'd only throw Kling to pinch run late or a late defensive sub when up a few runs.

Pearson (LF), Kling (CF), Larson (RF)
Or
Bingham (LF), Larson (CF), Pearson (RF)
Those would be the two options that make the most sense to me.
Bingham has more power than Kling, Kling gets on base more than Bingham, particularly in the last month or so. My only caveat is that I think Larson needs to be in centerfield if Kling is not in.
