The good news is that Freddie leads the team in extra base hits.

Unfortunately, that is also the bad news.

Do can we have a lottery to pick the day that Charlie finally explodes and sends the clubhouse up in sheets of fire?

I just think maybe I’ve seen enough. Time to turn it off. Time for sleep.

Yesterday was 1961 Phillies baseball (do NOT check back.. it was worse than you can imagine). Yesterday was so bad, I am hoping that it is an aberration and not a new way of life. So, I am going to forget about trying to find something to say about it. I am going to write it off as just something that happens. And forget it.

Let me try this thought out on y’all. I am watching Charlie do the mix-and-match lineup routine. With absolutely no success. What do you think about Charlie simply picking a starting lineup and sticking with it. No mix and match. Minimal platooning, if any at all. Just pick a lineup and let it settle. Let the guys he picks get some at bats, and not lose their place if they have a bad game. Mayberry plays first. Polly at third. Pierre in left. Galvis at second.

Lineup:
Jimmy leads off
Pierre hits two
Victorino hits three
Mayberry hits four
Pence hits five
Chooch hits six
Glavis hits seven
Polly hits eight
