Tigers game 2

The correct move is to sit Markakis vs this LHP. He then promptly hits a triple in his first PA while the rest of the lineup struggles. To Snit, this suggests Markakis is fine against LHP, and will be in the lineup vs the next one as well.

This is the type of eye test or gut feeling decision making process that has to go away.
 
I want everyone to remember these sentiments the next time someone suggests Acuna is a better hitter at 1 than at 2 or 4.

I’m pretty sure no one on this board wants or has wanted Acuna in the leadoff spot. At least not this year.
