Forum > Mike Olt is too young to DH

But Moreland isn't? Olt 24, Moreland 26.

Wash says what ever is convienient. He's a dishonest man.

He also says Young has earned his playing time with his past performance, while Murphy has earned his playing time with his recent performance. No consistency with this guy whatsoever.

No consitency at all. He throws Josh under the bus for not making adjustments yet is so damn stubborn himself he refuses to make adjustments himself. His attitude of we're in 1st place we must be doing something right has rubbed off on the team.

Think what you will about Wash in general, but that is not being inconsistent. I think what Wash meant was that Olt is a spry young guy and a good defender, and when he plays it should be in the field with someone else DHing. Thus, when Olt and Moreland both play, Olt plays the field and Moreland (who is just coming off an injury) gets the half-day off at DH.

I thought for sure that Wash would pinch hit Moreland for Olt with 2 outs, the bases loaded, and down by one in the 7th inning. I was really shocked he didn't. Not mad about it or anything, might as well get him some reps in a high leverae situation. He did come within a few feet of a HR his last PA against a righty, after all.

Wash has been cursed by God.

Ground ball lefty on the mound, Beltre gets day off on turf. Let's go ahead and throw Young at 3B instead of Olt. Come on Wash!
