Yeah, kick him and his .325 batting average 3rd base playing position to the bench.

I don't think it's too much to ask to also field routine ground balls.

How does he compare to other starting 2nd baseman? I honestly don't know.

Me either. I just know he is a 3rd baseman who was asked to play LF, RF, 2B and 3B last year as a rookie (forget the day at 1B and SS). Who else has been asked to do that? I guess he has become the jack of all trades, master of none. Meanwhile his bat is coming around.

Guys, if we're going to rely on Nick Ahmed homeruns to win this game we might as well go home. Where are the bats boys?!?!?

We're not turning into one of these places are we?
No idea that you are talking about. This was my quote about Brandon "Me either. I just know he is a 3rd baseman who was asked to play LF, RF, 2B and 3B last year as a rookie (forget the day at 1B and SS). Who else has been asked to do that? I guess he has become the jack of all trades, master of none. Meanwhile his bat is coming around. Let's discuss this.

Awful lineup out there. And Tomas is batting .148 this month. No bueno.

Drury gets a day off
Hot-hitting second baseman Brandon Drury was out of the lineup on Sunday, the latest Diamondbacks regular to be given a day off by manager Torey Lovullo, who continues to be progressive in providing rest for his regular players.

“It’s tough to take him out of the lineup, but rest is important to everybody on this team,” Lovullo said. “It’s been something that I’ve been following throughout the course of the year. The players are pushing back because they want to play – and that’s a credit to them – but this is part of the plan for everybody to stay strong, stay fresh throughout the course of the year.”

Drury went just 1 for 4 on Saturday evening but is 9 for 20 with four doubles and two homers in five games on the homestand. He leads the majors with a .437 average (31 for 71) in home games

AJ called that all the way. Thankfully it ended with a catch and no injuries.

Frustrating. He seems to have so much potential but can't ever get ahead in the count and it goes south from there :thud:

Has anyone seen the bats??? Did they get lost? Did we forget to cork these pink bats or something? Is Goldy the only one who wants to win for his Momma???

Nothing like having your starting pitchers batting and running first base, at the same time.
