There is absolutely no reason to not have Schwarber consistently hitting behind Arraez, whether that’s 1/2 or 2/3 or 3/4. Don’t care about LRL, don’t care that the math nerds have convinced you all that an extra PA every 9 games is worth jettisoning a century of baseball strategy.
Anything Arraez does to sage the scumbag vibes off of jersey #4 is ok by me.

Matt Gelb@mattgelb.bsky.social · yesterdayDon Mattingly indicated everything is possible in New Phillies Order. Harper could be lifted for defense late in games. He might not. Stott and Bohm could end up back at their normal positions if subs are needed. Arraez could play first if needed. There are no rules.

As long as we continue to exist in the universe where Tom Brady went in the 7th round and Mitch Trubisky got drafted ahead of Pat Mahomes, please don’t show me your QB rankings. You don’t know what you’re talking about, and neither do I. I don’t care.
We’re pioneering “positionless baseball”. Everybody just stands around in a clump and runs to a position as necessary.

A “clean game” is when your ace strikes out 11 but walks 5 and you manage to pad a 1 run lead to 5 in the 8th to protect the manager from self immolation again
NBC Sports Philadelphia@nbcsportsphiladelphia.com · 4d ago"The whole game today felt like a clean game." Don Mattingly breaks down what went right for the Phils on Saturday:
Man, we really lost Wesley Willis way too soon. You know this Pope would’ve had him over.
Rich Raho@richraho.bsky.social · 5d agoPope Leo received singer and songwriter Patti Smith in private audience this morning. The Pope and Smith are both Chicago natives. She was accompanied by @antoniospadaro.bsky.social, undersecretary for the Vatican's Dicastery for Culture and Education.
This is extremely true of Shakespeare as well - classic dramatic literature is like a solid 70/30 ratio of blood and guts to dick jokes, and yet decades of shitty pedagogy have taught audiences to treat it like it’s the cultural equivalent of eating your vegetables.

Definitely worth a listen- for my money Sidney and Big Stoke are the two greatest pure managers of their generation. 🤼
