Those guys combined hitting 443.

Found that good number from Christian on Twitter.

Everyone else is hitting 138 combined.

Includes Marcelo Zuna.

How is this offense supposed to take off?

How is this offense supposed to find any rhythm when in the middle of your order, the way that this lineup has been constructed, and sure, there's no consistency yet.

They've only played four games.

But with Cruz leading off in 143 and looking like he had an uncompetitive at-bat late in the game last night, swung it two pitches, saw three, all three were strikes, and just doesn't look that interested at the plate.

You follow that up with Lau, who's your best hitter right now, then Reynolds and Ozuna, then O'Hearn.

You can't find any rhythm, any consistency when, oh, Lau gets on base, then who comes up?

Brian Reynolds to do nothing.

or Ozuna to do nothing.

Then O'Hearn gets a base hit.

Here comes Jared Triolo.

The way that this lineup has been constructed, and the way that they just flat out haven't played and performed.

Sometimes it's just about the Jimmys and Joes, more so than the X's and O's, and we construct the lineup, and sure, we can bitch and complain about where Jared Triolo is all the time.

One RBI for Brian Reynolds, and it was because of a nice little...

What would you call it?

25, 30 mile an hour dribbler up the left field line and extra innings a couple of games ago.

He's done nothing.
