4/27/15 MLB GAME THREAD Braves/Nats: Markakis still at the top - Peterson batting 7th

Personally, I don't understand why we aren't seeing:

Markakis RF
Simba SS
Freeman 1B
AJ C
Cjoh 3B
Gomes LF
Peterson 2B
Maybin CF

That seems BEST out of what we have.

A lineup with Callaspo hitting 5th is an embarrassment.
 
BTW, I watched the replay of yesterday game (I missed most of it live) and boy what an idiot Joe Simpson made of himself talking about how Bethancourt could learn a thing or two about pitch framing from AJ. That is total horse crap as AJ has long been among the worst in that area. Bethancourt could improve in that area sure but if so he won't from AJ who he's already an improvement over. Further, DRS has AJ at -3 already and Bethancourt at saving two runs already in less games. Bethancourt is night and day better than AJ defensively. Plus I don't think AJ is very good at calling games so I hope Bethancourt doesn't try to learn from him there either.
 
Jesus, Fredi. Play Maybin, CJ, and Bethancourt each day. This team is bound to lose 90-100 games every day anyway, so play Maybin and Bethancourt to see what you have and play CJ to try to get him on a hot streak until July and trade him.
