Mike Stanton Called Up, FO Reshuffles Bullpen and Bench

[Nick]

You know I've been thinking about it for a while, and you know I'm starting to like Swift's idea of Stanton in the 2-hole. If Sanchez (or any of other hitters for that matter) had a better OBP and was a more prototypical 2-hitter than things would be different, but he's not. So why not give Stanton the protection? At least give him a chance there. If he puts up a pitiful OBP then make the change, but I say put him in the spot where he has the best chance to succeed, and that's hitting #2 IMO.

I wonder what number he's gon wear

[Swifty]

[kylekash]

[Ramp]

it's a done deal

[kylekash]

fantastic!

[emkayseven]

yeah that's been widely reported already

really wish it was different. like, anything different. such bad memories

[kylekash]

Maybe he'll hit at Grand Slam in his first AB

[Ramp]

I honestly had no clue Hermida was #27

/bestfanevar

[Bobbob1313]

I thought Hermida was 25.

[Swifty]

There's no way you thought Hermida was 25. He was your favoritest player ever before Cam rolled into town.

The playing dumb/oblivious schtick is getting old.

[Bobbob1313]

Wait, really? You think I'm playing dumb with that?

Wow.

Do you think ramp was playing dumb?

[Mainge]

I couldn't tell you anyone's number but Hanleys.

[Nick]

Yeah I never pay attention to anyone's numbers. I could tell you Hanley and Uggla's, but other than that I'd be hard-pressed to tell you anyone else's.

[Swifty]

I can't believe people watch the team day in and day out and don't remember numbers.

Especially of players of consequence.
