I still think swapping Vlad and Bo makes sense in the order. Too many empty ABs from Bo at the moment, which I know will eventually turn around. Vlad is the best hitter in the league, having him 2nd in the line up gives Springer more to hit, gives potential for more Vladdy ABs late in the game, puts pressure on the pitcher right away, and it also just shakes things up a bit for Bo as clearly he is frustrated and these things can help hitters.
