March 30, 201610 yr I know it's still Spring Training, but I was hoping the Twins were going to maybe not lean on Dozier so much and give him a day off here and there so he doesn't wear out in the 2nd half this season. Maybe it's just me, but he sure seems to be playing A LOT in Florida (Like every game). So, basically I am wondering if I am just imagining it or is he playing quite a bit for a veteran, especially one who seems to be in regular season form already. I see he is in the lineup again today. What is everyone else's thoughts? Maybe I am over-reacting but compared to someone that needs as many as bats as possible (Buxton - Who is out of the lineup today) he sure plays a lot.
March 30, 201610 yr He's playing his 17th spring game today... Others: 24 - Mastroianni22 - Beresford, Arcia19 - Nunez18 - Escobar, Park, Santana17 - Dozier, Rosario, Sano16 - Buxton, Sweeney, Plouffe15 - Mauer (includes today's game if they started) He's playing a pretty normal amount. As a leadoff hitter, he's usually out of the games he plays a little earlier than some (just because he gets that 3rd or 4th at bat sooner).
