We're just not going to let Wallner or Julien hit against lefties..... That lineup is almost all backup quality players. They'll probably score a dozen.

Certainly they'll get better hitting lefties by watching other players try to do so.

Perhaps they didn't sign up for the 1 credit lab class that goes along with the 3 credit instructional class?

I presume swinging is involved in hitting lefties? What else do i need to do?

Ideally, hit the ball when swinging.  Then run until someone tells you to stop.

That lineup sure isn't going to strike fear in anyone, but as long as we win...who cares?

I believe it's "run until someone calls you out."

I had no idea Carson Wentz played baseball too.

 

I thought of that joke too, but decided against making it.

I'm glad that you bombed with it instead.

If you get back to the dugout before anyone has told you to stop, grab some seeds, a gatorade, some bubble gum and then stop.

What if you don't get called out?

Ha! You're right. 

6.37 ERA...clearly he DOESN'T play baseball.

Looks better than the lineup Detroit is throwing out there today.   Plus if get an opportune moment with men on base,  you have 2 good hitters to pinch hit.

You'll have to be more specific as to which of the two lineups you mean......
