Around SBN: Africa Cup Of Nations Semifinal: Black Stars Ripe For Upset?

Blasphemous...or is it?

A question posed to the masses:

 

Evan Longoria is pressing right now, he's a rookie in his first postseason. I don't think this is a point up for debate. He has gone 1-16 with 8Ks since the impressive debut. His timing is still not there from the injury, as noted by TBS and any other casual observer. So the question...

 

Would you sit Longoria for game 2 (against a right handed stud in Beckett), and start Aybar at third, putting another left handed bat in the lineup, or would you allow Longoria to play through his struggling?

Horrible Idea

About the same as putting Kaz in the bullpen and sitting BJ.

H ejust needs to lay off the junk off the plate away.

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.

I don’t understand why no one can grasp the idea of a small sample size.

It's because it's too small and just slides through your fingers.

To PSmith7… It’s after Game 2 now. Sooooo…how do you feel about this post now? Waste of time and energy, huh?

thats it? well the 8th drawf hit 2 HRs off of an allstar pitcher lol kaz allstar this year lmao

when you think .500 is the best a team can do and they are currently playing in the ALCS for a chance to advance to the WS, you have to stop and think that the future of that team is going to be amazing. GO TB RAYS!
