-Braves use light hitting middle infielder in leadoff spot for months, no peep from KLaw.
-Reds use light hitting middle infielder in two hole for months, KLaw bashes the manager almost daily.
-Both Braves & Reds managers, I assume tired of the outs, remove their light hitting middle infielders from the top of the order, for good, during the same week.
-Today, on a Sunday when many teams give days off to regulars, the Reds used a man batting .182 in the two hole. The Braves, also giving days off to many starters, used a man batting .188 in the leadoff spot.
-Guess which manager KLaw went after on twitter?
Hmm. "Aint a damn thing changed", except that it has. Weeks ago. Just like the Braves. Who also used a bum at the top of the lineup today.
Both managers had bums at the top of the order, both finally adjusted at the same time, both randomly used a shitty hitter on a Sunday when many lineups are wacky. I mean, they've handled their lineups in the exact same manner. One manager takes zero heat, the other is a running meme.
You guys wonder why I go after KLaw. It's not defending Baker's dumb lineups. I didn't like Cozart batting second. I don't like Izturis batting second (even though it doesn't really bother me on a random Sunday game). I go after KLaw just as hard with his #grit/Kirk Gibson nonsense. The man is a hypocrite, and he should be above high school level memes because he wields a ton of influence. Leave that shit to Calcaterra, who doesn't take himself very seriously.
