  1. Here is a comment just to help with algorithms.

    I think I am at Brito or bust for 2B, I have said in past comments how highly I think of him. If he turns into a solid bat that keeps the place warm for Bazzana that is a best case scenario, right?

  2. Thanks for today's show guys!

    Want to give a shout out to your friend Mike from Saturday. He really provided some interesting commentary from his personal experience at Lake County. Good job by him!

    Interesting discussion on DeLauter. Gotta think past performance is the best predictor of future performance and FO will manipulate service time with him. But its a good Hot Take.

    I preface this by saying all the sabermetrics research seems to indicate batting order that deviates from the traditional model doesn't make too much of a difference in run production…but how about Noel at the bottom of the order when he is in the lineup? Granted, the problem is he might be too frequently coming to bat with no one on base, but on the other hand maybe the top of the order protection gives him marginally better pitches to hit? IDK
