Comments on: Jose Molina and the Game 5 DH debate http://riveraveblues.com/2009/10/jose-molina-and-the-game-5-dh-debate-18788/ A New York Yankees Blog Mon, 28 May 2012 13:17:22 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: jake http://riveraveblues.com/2009/10/jose-molina-and-the-game-5-dh-debate-18788/#comment-643395 jake Thu, 22 Oct 2009 20:29:41 +0000 http://riveraveblues.com/?p=18788#comment-643395 want to have both bats in the lineup. If start matsui, can pinch hit for Molina mid-game (after one or two abs) with Posada so that late in game we have both good bats in lineup. if they start Posada, then will need to pinch hit for Molina mid-game with Matsui and insert Cervelli, replacing Molina's weak bat with Cervelli's weak bat. For innings 7 - 9, I would rather have Posada & Matsui's bats than Posada and Molina/Cervelli, so go with Matsui as DH and pinch hit Jorge for Molina in 6th inning want to have both bats in the lineup.

Let's face it, the issue between Posada and Burnett is pitch selection. Molina calling pitches rectifies that and the yanks keep their best offense in-tack How about this…Posada catches, Matsui DH, Molina calls pitches from bench.

The possibility of a bad start by Burnett is really important to allow for. You can't afford to fall behind and then not have both Posada and Matsui in the lineup. Sounds right.
