Oh, I know the numbers I gave were merely a hypothetical. But look at tonight. Ellis is 0-2. He's done nothing in the leadoff spot. Would someone else have done better? Nobody knows, but other guys give your team a better chance. Even if that chance is just a few fractions of a percentage point, they're still there.

Just because the ultimate difference might be very minor (and it's not that lineups don't matter, they just generally don't matter as much as people think) doesn't mean Macha should throw darts at a board to decide who bats where.

It's nice to see Bobby Crosby finally remove his head from his rectum.
