I agree.....Makes sense usually rob makes it predictable and it backfires, speed kills and good hitters should always be up at the top and then work your rotations from there on down.No. Its stupid still because 1, he clogs the basepath. It's still wise to have speed at the top of the lineup. You can manufacture more runs with speed. Puts more pressure on the defense and the pitcher. That will never change. 2, you have Turner and Stott. They should be 1 and 2. PERIOD!!!! With Harper hitting 3rd. For a man to have 47home runs with 104 RBI's is absolutely attrocious. Dude should be in the 130 range, and would be with Turner, Stott and Harper hitting in front of him. 3, he has Bohm or Reamulto for protection in the lineup after him. You wouldn't wanna fool around with Schwarber if he was hitting clean up with Turner, Harper or Stott on base because Bohm or J.T. can hurt you. You can argue he would get better pitches to hit in those scenarios rather than just no one on base.

I like your lineup which makes more sense.
