Mackanin using Phillips as clean up hitter

He is not a typical 4 hole hitter, but he responded by hitting a grand slam last night. He already has 18 HRs this year. That is already one more than all last year. I don't know if this is permanent, but it has worked out well so far. I just hope he doesn't follow Narron's thinking and have a different lineup every day.

Wow. Phillips has 18 huh?...I have been asleep this year...impressive...isn't this the kid that was slated by the Indians to be a big star a few years ago?

Re: Mackanin using Phillips as clean up hitter

Yeah, this is the same guy. If I remember, he got into a tussle with the manager, and never got the opportunity again. This was Krivsky's first big move.
