3. Eugenio Suarez ® 3B
4. Mike Moustakas (L) 2B

7. Nick Senzel ® CF
8. Freddy Galvis (S) SS
9. Tucker Barnhart (L) C

6 games in, it's a must win.  A 4 game losing streak is the same as a 10 game losing streak in a 162 game season.

Moustakas back is needed.  Casili and Stephenson should be in at Catcher & DH if this is a Must Win as I posted this morning.  This line-up has too many sleeping bats outs.  Galvis is batting way too low in this sorry line-up.  Suarez, Winker, Senzel, Barnhart are outs until they prove otherwise. We need a 3rd and an OF, but C and DH should be Casilli and Stephenson. If they demoted Stephenson's hot bat to put somebody on roster, that really makes no sense.
