Yeah, well, they said it was hip-related, and he seemed to be overcoming that.

So, yeah, I'm not...

doing it now, but if it continues and you have lively hitters in your lineup, I don't know if I would be against moving things around.

Having said that, I want one, two, three, four to be pretty much the same every day if I can get it.

I've always looked at the Atlanta Braves, you know, because their lineup remains the same, good, bad, or indifferent, and they seem to overcome it and win largely.

Last year was not so much, but they have guys slotted in, and talking to players, they kind of like that, where they know they're going to hit.

I mean, his numbers all at the end of the year seem to be the same, but he goes through all these peaks and valleys, you know, and you'd like to try to shorten the valleys and get him to be even better than he's been in that department.

I think that goes for all those guys.

The lineup better makes everybody better.

It also takes pressure off of Henry Davis.

Not that he's a guy that you're going to ignore.

But with Griffin now here, he's a guy who can just do what he does.

And maybe that will help him because he's not going to be expected to be

1-1 bat that they need.

They have other guys for now, but maybe that slowly but surely has an impact on his average and run production.

If they have enough 1-7, they should be able to, but I don't even know, is Triolo your everyday third baseman now, or is it Gonzalez?

He's a jack of all trades with that glove.

He can do a lot of different things.

But if you have Triolo and Connor Griffin on the left side of your infield, I think that's a pretty good defensive infield.

and it'll help all those pitchers.
