  1. Why is Endy not playing today? He had Saturday off. Wednesday/Thursday’s games are night/day games, so he’s going to have one of those off as well. 3 games off over a period of 6 days seems excessive for a 23-year-old, unless he’s really banged up.

  2. Heard on 93.7 today that three of Endys fly balls are home runs in a bunch of other ball parks. Seems like he’s finally figuring it out. Why are we sitting him????

  3. I mean, fine, you want to start Delay, but why the hell would you put Palacios in there again as a leadoff guy? Because he bats left handed? They are so obsessed with L/R matchups. Palacios has a .260 OBP.
