You have to consider moving Segura to 7th or 8th in the order at this point.

 

Who do you put at second? Segura is cold right now, but he really hasn't been that bad.

 

.220/.273/.293. He actually has been that bad and he's been that bad going back to the second half of last season.

Entering today Segura is averaging the fewest pitches per PA, 2.98, in the National League

 

And that's part of the problem. He's hitting in front of Braun and Ramirez. He needs to be more selective and look for pitches he can drive, get the count in his favor. He's swinging at everything, and teams are realizing that they don't have to throw him strikes early in the count and he will likely get himself out.

For a shortstop in a small sample size at the beginning of the season, that is bad but it is not catastrophic. Prince Fielder is hitting .159/.260/.205. I agree he has looked poor in this series though, and that a day off might help.

This. Well said.

Wow, I won't fault Schafer too much for the failure as that was an absolute rocket but that's two in a row without a sac fly. Just frustrates me. Though hard to complain after they just handed us the two runs.
