*extreme Wilner voice* That's funny because I heard Gibbons would NEVER change his lineup.

Rejoice, fiends.
I think I’ve said enough about Pillar and Gibbons and lineup decisions the last couple days, so I think I’m just going to leave it at that.
UPDATE:
So, about that Dwight Smith Jr. hitting second thing:
That’s right: Russell Martin isn’t in the lineup because the Jays are going with Luke Maile behine the plate, but when he returns, the number two hole belongs to him.
OHHHHHHH, SHIIIIIIIIITTTTT. How are you supposed to whine about Gibbons now? Would you like me to try to build a time machine for you?
Also… uh… are we still doing ‘phrasing’?
