Other players lead-off doubles already pretty much go for naught as it is.

I think you'll see Phillips back at the top of the order, and Cozart moves into the two spot when Votto returns. Ludwick can hold down the 4 spot. Of course they would need to move Phillips to CF to allow him to hit in the leadoff spot.

Not talking about lead off doubles. I'm talking about the ones votto will hit but won't matter for shit because the 2 hitters in front of him can't even get on base.

I dont think you heard.

Hamilton will be the CF and leadoff hitter when the postseason starts.


At least according to Sportsandhandjob thinks so.


I think the resurgance of Ludwick I would like to see BP in the the leadoff, followed by cozart and votto and luddy in the 4 hole, Bruce, Frazier, Stubbs and Hannigan.

Except the 50+% of the time Rolen plays 3B. Maybe sometimes when Rolen plays they'll have Stubbs on the bench, Bruce in CF, Luudy in RF, and Frazier in LF. Like when they play Philly and StL when they get out hit.

I thought I saw John Fay tweeted that he asked Dusty about putting Bruce in CF and Dusty basically said no. Could be wrong, maybe another Fay follower might remember.
