I just have a feeling IKF will come through massively in one of these games at the plate.

Obviously the big question mark is can Springer actually swing effectively? That doesn’t seem like an injury that heals itself in 70 hours to be able to swing like normal again.

I get the pride and wanting to be in the lineup for a WS clincher, and am sure there’s a plan if he’s not going to be good enough after an at bat or two, but because the Springer decision is also directly linked to Bo, and putting Bo as risk for further injury out in the field (and reduced infield range), it has further complications and just can’t be an ego thing.
