Cash Considerations: The 2020 Rays roster platoon, Part 1

[Lineup charts through Tuesday’s game]

The Rays have one of the deepest and most flexible rosters in all of Major League Baseball. This is a great trait to have, but it certainly puts a lot of pressure on Kevin Cash and the Front Office to craft the best lineup night-in and night-out if this team is going to live up to its potential.

Over the course of the next few weeks, we’ll be diving into those decisions, looking at which players Cash is playing most often against lefties and righties, where in the lineup certain batters are hitting, and if the pitch mix of the opposing starter plays any role in those decisions.
