Could it be that they simply don’t want to tip their hand? Maybe, maybe not. I tend to think that if you have 4 MLBs, you probably don’t really have 1. But this camp has understandably been tight in a lot of ways—it could be that Lamb has a good idea who he’ll lean on but doesn’t want to say.

That said, while I generally approve of Lamb’s work thus far, I think he’s over-subbed at times. Teams obviously threw at us when he’d predictably rotate Nacua off the field. I’m hoping we aren’t about to see a continuation of that.
