    So I like Snit finally making the move to have Ozzie in the 3 hole behind Olson. I don't like Murphy being moved out of the cleanup role.

    I'd really like to see

    Acuña
    Harris ll
    Albies
    Murphy
    Olson
    Riley
    Ozuna/TDA
    Rosario/Pillar
    Arcia

    If you try to match up a lefty vs Harris you pay the RH Ozzie penalty. Gives Olson some coverage too. If Ozzie's going to switch hit it makes sense to utilize it to its maximum effect.

    It's still early but Harris has a great walk rate and obp delta along with a solid strike out rate. As his babip normalizes he'll look even better at 2

    Why does Murphy have to be after Riley?
    There must be a reason, because it seems like a no-brainer to us.

    It’s hard making assumptions this early but the Mets may actually be a bad baseball team.

    Hard to score when Olson and Riley hit in an inning.

    Robbie Grossman is going to be featured in one of those “Random Braves” threads in the future.

    come on, man. We get it. You are not a Matt Olson fan. You ****ing talking about it every night. Just lay off it. He’s playing terribly but he’s somehow the least of our concerns most nights

    If only Pillar could still play CF vs lefties.
