At what point does the order need to be shuffled around since Ohtani is failing as a #3 hitter? I think it's time to swap him and Trout and see if that doesn't kick start him a little. 

Move Trout to leadoff.

You're on a good roll with this!

I wonder if Rosenberg's hobby is precious gems?

This innocuous comment is under further review from Tennessee HQ, isn't it?

For who?

The stats say your #3 hitter is less impactful than 2, 4 or 5, so unless you are thinking of moving him down to 6th it's not going to matter.

Sorry I'm not "woke" up yet.

Rough Saturday night!

I have found over the years that aggregated stats using an entire league of random lineups to be utter bullshit. 

[UndertheHalo]

Rosenberg did a great job 

[eligrba4ever]

Stassi and Rengifo!!! A run-producing juggernaut.

[Waybackman]

Classy Stassi!

We will cede our argument based upon millions of all time plate appearances to your gut feeling blarg!

Stassi you beast

[bloodbrother]

Damn, Velazquez even swings and misses on bunt attempts. Peak Jeff Mathis cannot compare to the bat of Velazquez

[tdawg87]

2nd and 3rd, 1 out.

Shit.

[failos]

Feels like this team is returning to how they were playing pre-losing streak. Glad the team/FO are finally using Quijada and Wantz instead of Loup and Tepera, but it’s still the 7th so we’ll see.

He can't hit anything off speed

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

Don't the Angels know it's bad etiquette to run up the score - M's fan

Still need to find 9 more outs

I think he’s a better hitter than Mathis, but we don’t need to rely on Squid’s “hitting” as long as the rest of the lineup produces.

Too soon to say that. Mariners might just be this bad. Still, team desperately needed a series like this after how much they've been struggling for weeks

He runs into a fastball every once and awhile

It’s weird how when Trout plays well the Angels win.

Ambiguous comment??

[tdawg87]

2nd and 3rd, 1 out is Angels' kryptonite.
