    Please explain thethe math to me haha

    It'll be interesting if FF really struggles defensively at 3b and even offensively for a while and Adams gets red hot again.

    I can think of 366 reasons....that's Nicks OBP in front of a power hitter. He should be hitting even higher in the lineup.

    Swanson

    Thats a pretty good lineup. Hopefully Freddie can be slightly below average defensively.
    close but move Markakis up to 5th then drop Adams and Flowers down one, so Markakis and Adams back to back.

    The transformation of not only the major league club but the overall organization since the sell-off has been a joy to watch. Still a lot of work to be done but the future is very bright.

    How long does it take for someone to drop a bunt FF's way?

    A lot of athletic players in Houstons lineup. Could very well happen more than once today.

    Lets for the sake of argument assume that the Braves don't sell off any parts at the deadline. Does S-Rod get 2, 3, or 4 starts per week? I say 3 - 1 each at 2B/LF/1B.

    I really wonder if they will play him at 3B some and move FF to first to give Adams a day off.

    I realize that would be in the best interest of the team for that day, but I think if you are moving FF to third you have to go all in with it. Don't yank him back and forth between 1B and 3B. That's my main concern with the idea.
