the current problem is that we have to use O'Malley at 1B if we're going to platoon for Lind between now and the 1st. I love O'Malley, but I love him less at 1B. I haven't looked at projected starters to know how many guys we will face who are lefties but I thought the move yesterday to ship out Romero could have been delayed until today (pen was in decent shape) because we were facing a touhg lefty and Lind is dogmeat vs. lefties right now (well...for a long time). Maybe he had had some career success vs. Sabathia...don't know. But I would have much rather had Romero in there yesterday. Maybe he goes 0-3, too. But he was (IMHO...which isn't much) a better bet than Lind.
If you're going to keep a lind around....you have to have a platoon. We did for a long time. We even did yesterday. We didn't use it. It didn't work out.
