Freel and his .231 batting average haven`t been getting it done in the Lead off position . . .[/quote] He was doing well until his last two games, he's 1 for 8 in those and was awful last night. I'd have to really look at the stats to come up with my own opinion but I know A-Men always says that's the problem with Freel as a starter, he just doesn't seem to do well when he's in the starting lineup so consistently. Of course we have to keep in mind the season's only seven games old. Things are going to normalize. Alex Gonzalez won't be leading the team in batting average like he is now, for example.

j.5000022 Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 If he does have a good game then I think they need to move dunn to first and have hamilton in left field. That probably wouldn't happen because hatteburg gives you good at bats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep Dunn in LF, if hamilton really is a stud put him at CF, and give freel 3-4 starts a week at 2nd, 3rd, LF, CF, and RF... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest #22 Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 Hamilton is something like the 93rd player to hit a homer in his first plate appearance in the bigs. The 55th player to do it did it off of Nolan Ryan's first pitch to him (a fastball), almost exactly 21 years ago. and so, history was made...

First hit, not first PA.

I think I'm starting to agree with you that we should go with a platoon with Freel and Hamilton in CF. But since that makes sense I doubt Narron does it. Also I'd say Conine has been very professional looking as well but the rest of the lineup has had issues. It's the most frustrating with young guys like Encarnacion and Phillips where you know they can be great hitters but other times they aren't disciplined at all up there. Hey, look at this, the D-Backs can lay down a sacrifice bunt with no outs, that's another thing we couldn't do today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
