It sucks to have to watch these games that Sarge keeps putting beater and money in. Evidently AA left his testicles in Toronto. Yes I know I don’t have to watch them.

Beater has at least started carrying the water and not being an auto-out.
Harris though... I know what Skid is thinking, but I have really begun to wonder if he's actually doing the opposite and destroying his confidence. If he used him off the bench for 2-3 games... late inning defense sliding Hilliard to left... pinch-running: Maybe he could clear his mind of the bad hitting habits he's formed and then also feel whatever contribution he makes is completely positive. If they don't want to send him down... then at least try that. You know it's weighing on the guy flailing and failing so badly when at bat.

If they don't want to send him down... then at least try that. You know it's weighing on the guy flailing and failing so badly when at bat. He did the exact same thing with Dansby his first couple of years. There were month long and two month stretches where Dansby was clearly clueless at the plate and unquestionably needed some time to sit back and take some time off and regroup, I have no doubt that Snitker did more harm than good by putting him out there every single day. When you're young and slumping the game speeds way up, you're always 0-2 and feeling the weight of the world. You gotta sit back and watch and slow things back down in your mind. Dansby was visibly shattered at times but Snitker wouldn't let up. The exact same thing we're seeing with Harris.
He's done it with Minter at times when he was struggling, Will Smith, there are others I just don't have time right now to think who else. If you're in the "in" group you're going to have your every day role no matter how bad you might do. Bobby Cox did it a lot, Chris Reitsma was the most glaring example. It's an organizational philosophy. I'm sure most teams have similar thoughts but we're just so extreme with it, players can really struggle a LOT and still be used in their every day role and not moved in the batting order no matter what.

Major League Baseball postponed tonight's games in New York and Philadelphia on Wednesday night because of poor air quality caused by smoke from Canadian wildfires.

Leadoff walks to start the game almost always seem to come to roost like that.
