Esky has been remarkable in those spots this year (mainly with 2 outs) but he's just not the guy I want up at the plate in that situation, either.

I really hope Ned puts Gordon at lead off when Gordon gets back (if). Esky is a perfect #9 hitter with his speed if his ego allows it. You put Gordon at leadoff in that situation and he's either going to walk, or score that run. If he walks, Moose is another guy who is great in sac fly situations. So is Cain.

Love esky, he's just not the leadoff of this team when Gordon gets back.

Ned isn't putting Gordon at leadoff.
