Two runs per season seems hardly statistically significant. 😜
I think that, with that little a difference on average over thousands of line ups and seasons, my take is it isn't ridiculous and a sign the manager is necessarily an idiot, but that, depending on your personnel, you may want to let your pitcher bat 9th. With this team, I liked the 9-1-2 stretch of Robles - Eaton - Turner at the start of the year, and I think Dozier has started to come around a bit since he moved to 2. Would I consider maybe slotting in Robles 6, Gomes 7, then either Difo 8 or Pitcher 8? That's a possibility. But, after the past few games, I don't try to tinker with a lineup that putting up a lot of runs.
