3/21 Braves vs tigers

Line up for Wed night's game vs Tigers on FSSO

Inciarte--CF
Albies--2B
Freddie--1B
Suzuki-- C
Markakis--RF
Tucker--LF
Swanson--SS
Ruiz--3B
McCarthy-- Pitching
 
Tigers take 1-0 lead in 1st on a hot shot for DBL down RF line, then an E-4 scores the run, a poop out, in foul ground, a K and a GR DBL before a swing K ends the inning.
 
Bot 1st --

Braves load the bases with an Albies single, BBs to Freddie and Suzuki, but then the LH Liriano finds the mark and Ks 2 LH batters in a row--Markakis and Tucker. WTF is Snitckers doing-- 5 LH hitters in a lineup vs LIriano?????

1-0 Tigers after 1

It is good for the lefties to be tested this way in Spring Training. But if the regular season then yea that would be a bad line-up.
 
If Camargo cannot go I'd play Santana at third to start the season and platoon Tucker with Adams in LF. Tucker is DH-level bad on defense, so in games he starts you can bring on Adams if there's a lead later in games.
 
Ruiz appears to be making a late spring run at the roster.

They may give it to him if Camargo hits the DL, but I'd go with Santana instead at third. I don't put much stock on success vs Liriano who stinks, esp. in ST. Ruiz being in consideration shows our lack of depth at third. We basically have Camargo and not much else.
