Revamped Lineup suggestions

A couple of tweaks for Tuesday night to get the offense going in this age of six-man rotations, seven-man bullpens, and shortened benches

P - Niese
C - Plawecki
1B - Matz
2B - Harvey
SS - deGrom
3B - Murphy
LF - Syndergaard
CF - Lagares
RF - Granderson

The exact order one chooses here is largely irrelevant, I'm just trying to get more of our best hitters in the game.
Bartolo will, of course, be the first bat off the bench.

Campbell had his best game of the year yesterday without putting the ball in play.

Works for me.

This may also be a defensive upgrade as well.

Not putting the ball in play: it's a NYM thing.

It's no small thing that at least part of Matz's historic day yesterday happened after he failed to get his bunt down.

More seriously, I'm kinda thinking, at least in the short-term, of:

[list=1:2x9ekoqm][*:2x9ekoqm]Tejada, ss[/*:m:2x9ekoqm]
[*:2x9ekoqm]Murphy, 3b[/*:m:2x9ekoqm]
[*:2x9ekoqm]Granderson, rf[/*:m:2x9ekoqm]
[*:2x9ekoqm]Flores, 2b[/*:m:2x9ekoqm]
[*:2x9ekoqm]Duda, 1b[/*:m:2x9ekoqm]
[*:2x9ekoqm]Cuddyer, lf[/*:m:2x9ekoqm]
[*:2x9ekoqm]Plawecki, c[/*:m:2x9ekoqm]

Grandy's got to be moved down in the order. By the time they do it, though, he'll be ice-cold again.

It ain't much, but agree that it is the best they got.
