Opening Day Lineup:  Giménez Hits Cleanup

So, I have questions:

Andrés Giménez Is Batting Cleanup?

Now, 99% of the time, I couldn’t care less about batting lineups. There isn’t much difference between the best and worst possible lineup. And no one picks out the worst possible lineup.

But, Gimenez hitting fourth? He had a .638 OPS last year. He slugged .340.

I’m good with the top three. I’m ok with the bottom five. But, and I know this is age talking and all, the guy hitting fourth ought to be able to drive in a run.

I’m not a fan of Springer in CF but I’ll live with it today.

Oh well, Go Jays Go.
