Verdugo
Riley
Ozuna
Olson

Murphy/baldwin
Harris
Allen
Kelenic

Man, when Acuna is back...
Acuna
Riley
Ozuna
Olson
Murphy/baldwin
Harris
Verdugo/fairchild
Allen/arcia

Acuna is gonna make this lineup so much better
 
It's so stupid that it will probably work, and snit will be labeled a baseball genius by most our fans
Last year happened, but even with last season, verdugo still has a .334 OBP for his career vs rhp. In 2023, he was .329 obp with a 109 wrc+ vs rhp. Let's just hope last year was a blip.
 
Verdugo posted a .290 OBP in 2024. He posted a .303 OBP in 33 AAA PAs this season.

In no multiverse should he be leading off for a contending team.
 
I'll put this in a third place, why not lol: I want to see Carlos Rodriguez get a chance at some point. He doesn't have any power but all he does is hit... he's fast, he walks about 10+ percent of the time and only K's around 10-12 percent of the time. He hasn't had a chance in MLB yet and is only 24. Send Fairchild down for him

You're preaching to the choir, but the milb numbers may be a little better than they indicate...

.174 babip
12.1 bb%
12.1 k%

Personally, I would just move Riley up to leadoff until Acuna is back. Harris certainly isn't a good option...

Harris this season vs rhp...
48 wrc+
.278 babip
.226 obp
 
Maybe Ozzie should lead off right now.

Ozzie vs rhp this season...
141 wrc+
.260/.339/.520
.235 babip

He's been awful vs lhp so far
