With Estrada back in the lineup and Thomas doing well, I just realized: There’s nobody in the Braves lineup in whom I have no faith whatsoever and know there’s no chance of them getting a hit. It’s a very odd feeling.
I know that Bobby is the king of platooning, but wouldn’t you play Marrero full time? I like what I’ve seen of Thomas but Marrero seems to have more power and is really hot right now.

I think it should be more of a 3-man, 2 position platoon for now as Charles Thomas is pretty hot too, and Julio’s production has been slipping recently. I think he could really use a day or two off every now and then and he would be a more productive guy when he was in there.
