Questions for Dusty (from my MLBlog: Baseball and Beyond)
Why wouldn’t a manager keep the guys in the lineup who are hitting well, like Gomes, Dikcerson, and Hanigan? I wonder had Paul Janish got to remain in the lineup while he was hitting solid would he have gone into a hitting funk as he has. If these guys who are doing the hitting are also playing solid defense to boot, I don’t care who the organization is paying the most too nor who has the most experience, I want the guys who are producing for the team and giving them a chance every night to win the game to be out on the field and in the lineup. Dusty sticks with Bruce regardless. Why can’t he do the same with others??
