what's with the "batting 2nd" thing? I mean, i'm not big on batting order, beyond giving your best hitters the most ABs, but Pete is a RHed moose, with a lot of swing and miss in his game. That's like the complete OPPOSITE of what a #2 hitter usually looks like --LHed to block the catcher's view and throw, patient with good bat control, to hit&run or move leadoff hitter over or let him steal, and fast to stay out of DPs and score from 1st on xtra base hits by the middle of the order-- otherwise known as McNeil. And its not like Pete's PROVEN he's one of the team's best hitters, deserving of more ABs than McNeil (for example). Is breaking up the lineup with alternating LH/RH hitters more important than than putting the best guys in the best slots? Even with the "3-hitter rule" making that strategy less important? I don't know. I'm just asking. I mean, i won't lose sleep over it, but is this Calloway trying to look like he understands analytics?
