This made me scratch my head.

Lineup switch: First baseman Derrek Lee batted second for the fourth time this season. It's a spot in the lineup that Lee likes.

"In the American League, the leadoff and second hitter can be the RBI men," Baker said. "Most of time in our league, the eighth and ninth hitters don't get on like they do in the American League. Also, Michael Barrett (who normally bats second) hasn't been going too good lately. He's 0-for-something (0-for-13). If you're 0-for-somethng, those 0-fors add up quick."

Barrett normally bats second, huh? Only 68 AB's of his 205 have been in the #2 slot. Yes recently he has been moved up to the #2 slot and he hasn't done to well, he is only hitting .250. From the #7 and #8 slots Barrett is batting somewhere around .310 in 115 AB's.

But Barrett doesn't normally bat second. Do these MLB.com writers even check the facts before they write something?
