I'd love to at least try that. I do think that Heyward is better fit higher in the order and he'd been hot before the injury in the 5-hole. I love TLS in the 1-2 hole and Simba shows promise hitting two. I'd be cool with that.
 
Didn't see the Gattis play, but he has made some bad ones. However I think he's been solid overall.

CB makes zero sense to me. He's not a better hitter than BJ and that is bad. He wasn't that great on D. And Gattis is awful in LF. We need Gattis' bat in the line up.

Line up
Heyward
JUp
FF
Gattis
TLS
CJ
Simba
BJ
Pitcher

If we are looking for crazy ideas how about this?
CJ to LF. Peraza to 2B. TLS to 3B? Hewyard to CF. BJ to the special category of Wren's Welfare

Or how about bringing up Wren from the minors? Bench BJ. Bat Wren 8 and let him take walks and slap a couple of hits. Improve our D and our speed. Lower or SO.
