    Whitner to FS

    With the injury to Leonard, looks like they are moving Whitner to FS and Scott to SS.

    Should be interesting.

    Who is supposed to line up on Whitten? Maybe Ellison will be back for that duty?

    If this is so, why not give Wendling some time. They drafted him for a reason. I'd rather see what he has than watching a waiver wire guy play. I think the defense is going to get shredded by Dallas anyway, considering our injuries and their talent so we might as well find out if Wendling can play.

      Sounds like the right move. Whitner might actually turn out to be a better FS than SS. And Scott can't cover a mattress with a sheet.
      Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

        He may get some time. So might Wilson. Should be interesting to see what they do. I doubt Scott plays the whole game.

          Greer seems to be happy about it:

          "I'm excited about seeing Donte at free," said Greer. "He plays wide open, and he has great speed for a safety. Having him back there behind me and Terrence (McGee) I know we're going to feel safe. And I know there's not a free safety in the league that's going to hit as hard as he is."

            He needs to be FS with Leonhard and Simpson injured. In terms of baseball we need a center fielder.

              I didn't see anything in Chris Brown's article about Wilson and Wendling getting some reps with the defense. It makes sense though and woudn't surprise me. I could have missed it in the article too.
              I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.

              I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.
