Yes, I am sure that Kingery has a much better shot against Scherzer than Franco does ???????

HopeSpringsEternal 2018-08-28 22:55:21 UTC #3

I think the key to the decision to start Kingery was to get a better fielding SS in the lineup. So to me the question is should Cabrera be starting over Franco. I’m OK either way.

Kingery has been much better since moving into the super-sub role.
