That lineup still rests Kang and Mercer. Why not that? Why Florimon? No excuse. Hurdle is an idiot.
1-7 are legit threats and Morse could strike gold in the 8th spot. For a rested line up, that's actually very legit.
Here's basically how bad last night was...

the only person missing from game two's lineup was goryks hernandez.
It seems like the honeymoon in Pittsburgh for Hurdle is finally starting to end.
Lots of pissed off fans today about his stupid lineup decisions.
Article on DK's website states this is all part of the plan and then he says look at the Cardinals fading as evidence for why this is such a good plan.
As a former baseball player, I can tell you, it's not as exhausting as Hurdle wants you to believe.
did you play a 162 game major league season? i mean cmon, i used to play college tennis but i have no idea what its like to be on the pro tour.
Do you wanna go 1 on 1 on the courts with the great one? I freaking love tennis. Pick a court and let's do this.
And I think the 162 thing is overblown. In this situation, you win the division and you do everything to get 4 games. We have a young team. They can handle it.
