I'm sorry, but I want my MVP level masher with the most chances to drive in baserunners. The AB's are not far enough apart to matter.Beat40 said:.Heineken-Ashi said:I've watched every game.

Yordan 3 for 3 with a homer and has only batted with 1 base runner and only has 2 RBI's. Meanwhile, in the 4-hole..
Have you been watching Yordan so far this season? Because his play prior to this game is nullifying the point you are making. If he had been in the 4 hole to this point, the results would have been the same.
If you are arguing for him in the 4 spot, you are wrong. Lowest he could bat is 3.
