Crisp vs. DeJesus at leadoff spot
Ok, I don't get this argument at all. I have heard a few on here and others such as Petro say we need to flip flop them. Why? I am not sure what it matters. Aside from the fact that it really only matters for 1 inning, (the first), DDJ cannot hold Crisp's jock right now as a leadoff hitter.
Most of you on here who follow the Royals know I am typically a big DDJ fan. But the fact is I cannot see how this helps the team at all? DDJ can't steal, can't work the pitcher and so far this season, cannot even hit. (see his latest 0-12 and stranding 11 runners, performance). In fact I would have to argue that in the 2nd spot he should see better pitches, particularly if Crisp gets on base. I don't get this argument at all. And if something this trivial is what is causing DDJ to play like shit then he is not near as good as I thought. Let's hear some toughts.... Last edited by petegz28; 05-11-2009 at 11:12 AM.. |
