We have a new leadoff hitter! And his name is Alec Bohm???

Castellanos back and batting second. Interesting choices though probably only against the LHP. Camargo is not in the lineup for Didi and that sounds like a bad choice to me.

[zambonir]

Well, so much for that paternity leave discussion. I'm assuming the birth was in the Philly area if he's back that quick (and he can still be around 'til Sunday).

[VoteForKalas]

We have a new leadoff hitter! And his name is Alec Bohm???

Joe is sure trying a lot of different options

[zambonir]

If I thought he was doing it in the name of flexibility and match-ups and marginal advantages (what was Gabe's term for that again?) I'd be all for it, don't have a set order all season! But I feel like he's just floundering, to solve problems that maybe don't exist, or if they do exist, still can't be solved by batting order. And going against his own stated preference (and that of the players) in doing so. But maybe he's also getting more guidance from the FO than we realize.

Of course the TV broadcast just noted Phillies leadoff hitters are batting a collective .150. But that is mostly about one slumping player - and the failure to actually add a lead-off type hitter besides that guy.
