MAybe Robe is at the point where he seperating the wheat from the chAFF.

Yep, which is why I said the early season high rankings were not justified. Too many questions needed answers in the lineup.

Next season is the year to expect high performance from the start.

We are now in the start of conference play, why do you think Rob insist putting Kasuls and Antchak playing two of the hottest spot of the infield? No, I don't know the answer. I have an idea. "I got them so I have to prove that I was correct in recruiting them".

You know better than that Frenchie. Arrogant and Robe are not two words that go together. Robe's angry too. He's seen these guys play and recruited them for a reason. It doesn't make it any less frustrating to watch them kick the ball around, but he saw something in them and the bottom line is that we can't play with only 8. Someone w has to play short stop.

I rarely disagree with you French man, but Robe believes in Kasuls. I've known this to be true for many months. I can promise you it's not an ego thing on Kasuls. And personally, the personality is there with Hunter. He seems like he has the moxy.

I think the guy will come through.

I agree; I also think Tony is looking at the "big picture" ... for us to be really, really good at the end of the season we will need both of those shortstops playing well ... they are being "weathered" right now.

Does righty lefty make a difference always? Point I am trying to get at, maybe a certain batter is just better than the average and his counterpart is just worst than the average. If we are not talking dozens of points average advantage, isn't the better batter the guy.

In answer to your question, not always, no.

On the radio show last night, Bab says it's more about what the other guys throw than it is L/R although we have some guys struggle vs. lefties. If we have a guy who struggles with velocity for instance, he may sit against a really hard thrower.

He also said last night they're going to play Sensley every day for the time being. Although he hasn't hit with power, he's hitting it hard and will be in the lineup even against lefties right now.

I especially like the Sensley idea. The only way he improves his hitting against high D1 level pitching is seeing high D1 level pitching.
