Wow they actually sat Lombo in favor of both Bernadina AND Espinosa. This is some hardcore BS.

and tracy. you know you aren't a good fit for the AL if he is your DH.

Bernadina hitting second....

Chad Tracy hitting at all.....

I picked a great day to buy a new television so I can watch this crapshow...

Just looked at the lineup again...yikes.

lombardozzi, who has been on fire since being the everyday guy ... out ... for the worst regular in MLB.

ZimW1N · « **Reply #8 on:** May 29, 2013, 04:31:28 pm »

So we use the DH spot to put not one, not two, but three players with a sub .500 batting average. Genius!

EDIT: sub 200

Clearly, when given the choice of "World Series or Bust" no one thought that Davey would keep choosing bust so unflinchingly.

GburgNatsFan · « **Reply #10 on:** May 29, 2013, 04:44:27 pm »

I'm puzzled. I find this line up arbitrary. Perhaps even - dare I say it - capricious.

RobDibblesGhost · « **Reply #11 on:** May 29, 2013, 04:56:32 pm »

When Charlie, Dave, and Phil Wood were all taking calls during the rain delay last night, even they were puzzled as to why Danny isn't sent to Harrisburg or Syracuse to figure things out. What the hell does Lombo have to do to get the nod over Espinosa?

Manly · « **Reply #12 on:** May 29, 2013, 05:09:48 pm »

Ohhhhhh that lineup doesn't make me want to stay up tonight haha.

I take the majority of stuff the ESPN Fantasy guys say with a pinch of salt but the way this season's gone so far their line on Harper ("The Nationals without Harper isn't a particularly dangerous proposition." or words to that effect) are starting to ring true. Espi and TRACY over Lombo?! Smh.

Sub .500 combined ... cumulative.

Good thing we called up Kobernus to sit behind Espinosa, Tracy, Moore and Shark. Great players!

MorseTheHorse · « **Reply #18 on:** May 29, 2013, 06:18:45 pm »

@#*&%@()#*^!)*# %! ESPINOSA

Hopefully this line-up can scrap together 3 runs. But even with JZimm in that small stadium will be hard to give up less than 2 runs to their offense.

7:05 pm first pitch is the deadline for entering:

Problem is if they scrape together 3 runs and Z'nn is standard Z'nn, Johnson will think this is a good lineup.

Lombardozzi not starting
