Saunders is becoming that versus-righties 5th or 6th hole bat the M's have needed, and that Doc correctly predicted. When Guti is healthy it will be intereting to see how things roll out. May well see Cust sitting some to begin with, with Bradley getting some DH time. But Saunders still looks lost vs lefties. Earl would have platooned him. He's only 24, much could happen...but that career .546 OPS vs. lefties is haunting.
Here's to improvement! Or at least, here's to the M's finding the RH hitting complement.
Langerhans, with a career high of 8 homers, has three hits, two of them taters. He has four walks (his one real strength)...all of them in one game. Weird. His stock is up, sell now.
