Has this team scored a single run this year in the first 3 innings?  I really don't think so.

Even though our offense still sucks, Stras is dealing.  5 Ks in a row :clap:

Says the guy with a sun avatar!

Ideally, you'd want a guy with a good OBP who doesn't swing at the first pitch in the leadoff spot.
After that, you want a guy with a good OBP and who can hit (in our case, somewhat hit). Not a guy who's batting below .200
3-4-5 spots are fine but they'd be a lot better if they didn't have a guy batting sub .200 right after.
It would also be smart to have a semi-hot hitter in Ankiel batting close to guys who can get on base.
Ramos and Flores should also be batting higher/lower in the lineup because they are decent.

IMO, that would leave the guys like Bernadina/Espinosa/Nady batting on the lower half of the lineup.

I'd go with

Lombo
Desmond
Zimmerman
LaRoche
Harper
Ramos/Flores/Ankiel (Moore would be here if he were playing which would push everyone back)
Ramos/Flores/Ankiel
Nady/Bernadina
Pitcher

Squab, I was just going to tweet that to FP (or whoever mans that account), but see he already retweeted your tweet. Well played.

Against the Pirates, 14 of the last 16 outs Strasburg has recorded have been by strikeout.  The other two were on tonight's double play.
