Let's Have Some Brews

Evidently Manuel is having some brews when filling out our batting order. You need a balanced line-up to prevent the opposing team take advantage of you with specialists. The Yanks took advantage of it Sunday and then the Brewers killed one of best rallies we had last night due to the same thing. YOU CANNOT BAT 3 LEFT HANDED HITTERS IN A ROW. In the 7th we had 2 runners on with 3 straight lefties coming up in Church, FMart, and Schneider. Oh look at what the Brewers have, Mark Stetter, a side-armed lefty with opposing lefties have a .111 batting average against. .111!!!!!! Church fought valiantly but could not win. If we had a righty after Church they may have thought twice about it. 2 nights in a row!!! I want to see Cora, Murph, Wright, Church, Sheff/Tatis, FMart, Castillo, Santos/Schneid. Castillo is batting over .300 against lefties so it doesn't hurt if they bring in a lefty. I having nothing to be positive about with the offense, pitching and defense being so poor. But for our own manager to let other teams take advantage of us more may knock me out. If Manuel would just be consistent with the line-up instead of switching every night, the bats will get hot.
