Left field

[Born2Shock]

Who is going to start? Hall has been on fire of late; Kenny with the big moxie on Sunday. Not a bad problem to have.

It's a great question. It was the first one I was thinking of walking out of Reynolds Sunday.

My answer is that I would start both, but admittedly it isn't as clear cut of a decision as it was two weeks ago.

I wouldn't be suprised to see KWJ.

And sit Ryan Jones? Not being critical, just curious if you meant in the field or using the DH somehow.

Do you sit Hill then and start McKeever at first?

Bingo, but like I said Hill has really picked it up the last two weeks so it's a much more difficult decision. He hasn't been dipping nearly as much so he is in once of his grooves where he hits ground balls in the middle part of the field rather than pop ups. Williams definitely puts more pressure on the defense.

I really dont think we will change our lineup much. The only question would be who does start at LF. I would put my money on KWJ. Then we can have Kevin as a pitch hitter or runner.

[Shocker85]

How can you consider changing anything?????

The current lineup is on a 9-game winning streak, 5 of which were against pretty good competition. You risk bad juju trying to get too cute with the line-up at this point.

--'85.

Also a good point. It's a tough call.

I strongly suspect we will need all the offense we can get in this series. Both KWJ and Hall bring more speed and pop to the table than Hill. I love how much Hall has battled at the plate. What he did for us in the Mo Valley was phenomenal. Williams provides us with a switch hitter with more speed and more pop. There is definitely something to be said for not tweaking what's not broken.

[Born2Shock]

I agree. Lets stick with whats been working. Kenny had a good quote in the paper today about being in the mix, and having his head right. Just keep that head on straight. I think he will still have a few AB's at some point this weekend. Hopefully in a mop up role :)

[t7017s]

If it aint broke don't fix it. I leave Hall in left because he has shown hes a much better left fielder. He has also been hitting of late and I think you got to keep things just as they have been for the last 9 games.

[Hill Sitter]

Place under 'good dilemma' category.

[moshock]

Pure speculation but I think Ole Gene will start KWJ in left and bring in Hall in as a PH/PR.

On Friday, I would start Kevin Hall and keep KWJ ready at all times. If Hall hits well leave him in the lineup. In a close game you bring Kenny off the bench. KWJ will get more than one chance to swing the bat this weekend. I think the coaches will use him as a weapon off the bench, and he is a good one at that.
