GDT 8/22/20 - Where’s Pache?!

With that I have to imagine Duvall is in the rest of the year with Ender out when Acuna and Markakis are back. In a season defined by small sample sizes, it’s going to be hard to justify Ender in the lineup when Duvall is outperforming him. Small sample is going to be small all year.

If you are a soft hitting guy and you can’t put down a bunt, it doesn’t look good for him.
 
Is this the year where you do ride the hot hand?

Me? No, because I understand no small sample is predictive of future success.

However, there are like 35 games left, so it’s hard to say Ender will regress to his normal self over the course of a long season that will never happen.

I just see no way Snit benches Duvall in favor of Ender after what’s happened so far, and there a in only won’t be enough PAs left to prove him right or wrong either way.
 
I was t watching the game can someone recap the craziness? I saw TdA scores a run that I thought won the game then get a ping that Duvall got a base hit?

Ump made an idiotic safe call at home plate saying Realmuto's foot wasn't on the dish for a forceout; the review took all of about 15 seconds. Duvall got a bases loaded, two out hit to seal the Phillies fate.
 
Why do you think Dansby will be a high OBP guy?

His walk rates were very good in past years. I know he batted in front of the pitcher many times but I see him as a tough AB guy that will tske his walks. I want that in front of Acuna.

What would be your alternative lineup?
