I’d try something like this: Jenkins CF Vilar SS Del C Toral 1B Gil 3B Thomas RF Tuero 2B Lauck DH Lala LF I’m fine with swapping Vilar and Thomas also

Also, if we’re playing musical DH: I’d like to see Lauck get a run in the role. He’s walked four times in five plate appearances this season, which tells me he at least has a better plate approach than we’re seeing from the rest of the team. Sorry, I had an entire basketball game to stew on it.

My two most easily fixable demands at the moment: -Move Jenkins to the leadoff spot -Make either Keysor or Federman the midweek starter. Garland and McFarlane are going to be good but aren’t ready yet, and I’ve been saying since the start that midweek pitcher by committee would bite us against...

Agree about Keysor. He’s a mediocre reliever but a fairly decent starter. I’d swap Munroe and Maury between your lists. Albert is far enough removed from his surgery that we should have seen progress, but he’s still struggling even in mop up duty.

Not sure I’m quite ready to bench Lala. I’d drop him to down to the eight or nine spot to rebuild confidence. Gino hasn’t been doing him any favors leaving him the leadoff spot.
