If Jace doesn't start getting more base hits and doubles soon, I might want to see Appel bat 2nd, and then Braden and Jace in the 3 hole and clean-up positions. I'm not saying that Jace isn't producing with the HRs he's hit, but imo Jace needs to get his focus back as his batting average has dropped about 20-30 points over the last 2 weeks and now he's had 2 straight games without getting on base. It's good seeing Ali hitting well again and he is really lining some balls hard both to left field and to right.
