Hm, it's almost like batting a real hitter leadoff helps. Maybe if Revere starts sitting when in NL parks, we should bat the pitcher leadoff just to make sure we maintain a yawning void atop the lineup. Consistency is important, you know, like having Papelbon blow each game in the 9th as opposed to pitching him earlier and having him blow it then.
What's the best reason/excuse that you've read about concerning Harpbum's demise? Joe Maddon?
Haven't read this, but it's simply trying too hard. He looks like 2015 Ian Desmond up there. Swinging at bad pitches, swinging too hard, flying open, the works.
