We don't have anyone else that can play SS competently so he has to be in the lineup, but at this point you have to move him down to the 7 hole.
We're probably 2 pieces short with DeJong struggling and Ozuna being so erratic. There's not a way to make a good lineup right now but there are ways to lessen the pain of the bad.

first two innings, 1st and 2nd no outs. Delong and Ozuna do shit. 4th inning, 1st and 2nd 1 out Dejong grounds into what should have been a DP. They are killing our offense at the top.
