I heard Daniel Murphy is playing first base tonight. Finally after horrendous misplays by both he and Reed, Manuel decides to play his infielders in the infield and his outfielders out. Maybe he'd like to put Castillo in center and Beltran at second to offset this obvious move. For all you Ryan Church haters, knock it off! This guy carried us in the beginning of last year. He batted .313 in April and is an excellent fielder. He's now hitting .275 and the guy puts his body on the line for this team. No freakin way should he be sat against righties in place of terrible outfielders. He also should not bat 8th against righties for guys like Santos to bat in front of him. Rookies like Santos and, even though I like him, Daniel Murphy. Rookies need to earn their spots in the batting order before being put in places that veterans like Church or Castillo have proven they can produce in. Have you noticed where Cano has batted since he was a rookie?
