Wait, why is Mayberry playing against a righty. This is should never happen.

I'm sure defense played a big part in Charlie's decision.

If you are going to play Mayberry over Nix against a good right handed pitcher, why even have Nix? Rather have Ruf up here.

Mayberry was the hero last opening day. Hit a big double with Wiggy on 1st in a tie game in the 7th. Wiggy scored on a sacrifice fly for the only run of the game.

Hope no one plays the Galvis role this year.

as long as he doesn't play full time, we can hide his weaknesses. its on nixxy to provide a good platoon, but unlike most, i like him. Seem to remember him being real good before he got hurt, but that was so long ago

And he had the walkoff single against the Astros in 2011.

Mayberry is 4-13 off HUDDY with 2 bombs, 4 walks and 2 K's. Shut up and eat your baseball.

Mayberry is keeping open the possibility of playing both the Mayberry and Galvis roles this year.

Steaks was on WIP. Apparently Manuel made a comment to reporters last week about him being one of the best "evaluators" in the organization and that being underappreciated. Donnellon and Cataldi (of course) were off to the races about it being a shot at Amaro, but Steaks took it more as Manuel reminding the reporters he was really worried this time last year and feels much better this time.
