Johnny Damon leading off this year: .232/.339/.318/.657

Where's he in the line-up for this second part of the twin bill? Batting lead-off, of course.

Of course, I'd be ecstatic if both Joe and Damon can prove me wrong starting tonight...but at this point where every single game and win is at a premium - I don't see how you can justify batting Damon leadoff, especially in a game where Wil Nieves is playing and hitting 9th. That's two automatic outs in the line-up and would certainly give most pitchers a nice little break in the line-up.

Finally, I saw these numbers at the top of the splits page and I think I threw up in my mouth a little.

Last seven days: .083/.313/.083/.396 (32 ABs)
Last fourteen days: .103/.321/.103/.424 (53 ABs)
Last twenty-eight days: .190/.337/.241/.578 (98 ABs)

Ugh.
