There was a quote from Ned a day or two ago that said going forward, Lough or Carroll (I think it was him) would be leading off depending on the pitching matchups

Duncan: So Ned, how about that lineup tonight. 2 hits, 0 runs, 16 K's
Ned: Well Duncan, it's not like there are statistics I can use to tell me that Getz is terrible and what the Lough/Maxwell splits look like. I mean, there's not a statistic tree out there for me to pull information from. Duncan: Actually there is Ned: [Glares] I managed in Atlanta and played in the majors. I'm right.

Outfield should be Gordon, Lough, and Maxwell.

Oh I know. I just keep believing that one day, Ned or DM will say something that they actually stick to. I know, I'm a glutton for punishment

Dyson is batting .297 against RHP. I'd be playing him over Maxwell with Sanchez on the mound. I have all lefties in the OF tonight.
Gordon, Dyson, and Lough. Gordon and Lough can hit both LHP and RHP. Dyson and Maxwell should be the platoon guys. |

The last thing is especially hilarious, since Getz was the "hot bat" in Omaha. But of course, Colon actually has been hotter in AAA. But, see, he doesn't have that proven track record of success in the bigs that Getzie does, so we know Colon's hot streak is fake, while we knew Getzie's was real.

Duncan: So, Ned. Why did you go with Dyson and Maxwell in CF and RF tonight rather than Dyson and David Lough? Ned: WEll, Loughie has been cooling off and we need to get Maxwell's slug in the lineup... Duncan: Well, if you're concerned about slug in the lineup, why start Dyson over David Lough? And if you're dead set on getting Dyson in the lineup, don't you realize that Lough is MUCH more effective against RHP than Maxwell? Ned: I had a feeling Maxie would do something. He's swung a big stick against RHP this year... Duncan: Nice that you have a feeling. I have conclusive (and damning, actually) statistical evidence that shows your feeling is likely wrong (and it's only luck if it turns out right). Now, moving on... Chris Getz is leading off. Ned: YEah, Getzie has really been getting on base at a high clip of late, and we need guys on for Hosmer and BIlly and Alex. Duncan: You mean in the three games since he came back? What about the DOZENS of other games in which he has an OPS lower than .600? Ned: Well, he got on base 3 times last night... Duncan: Stop it, Ned. Jeff Francoeur would have walked 3 times against Jacob Turner in that game. Getz saw 0 (that's none, zip, zilch) strikes in those 3 at-bats. Let's not act like he battled for em. They were handed to him. Ned: Well, I only know what I know... Duncan: And that's too f***ing little. Go lead your guys in bunt drills and waste more opportunities this season.

Sometimes you wonder if Yost realizes this team is in the hunt for a WC spot.
