Why isnt Ian Kinsler higher in the Rangers batting order?

Question:The guy is hitting .359 with 7 hr and 13 RBI's, a lot of his homers hav been solo shots, why not switch Catalonotto and Kinsler in the order?

Answers:

Why doesn't MLB add another wild card team to the playoffs. It is so hard to make the playoffs in baseball.

It makes all the sense in the world to bat Kinsler #2. Teixeira is struggling mightily right now, so why not give your hottest hitter more at-bats? It's almost as if manager Ron Washington is betting on the the other team. I can't see how batting Kinsler in the bottom third of the order would help the team. With 7 homers and 13 RBIs, Blalock, Sosa, and Wilkerson aren't getting on base much in front of him. Gotta move the guy up.

Who was the American League Batting Champion in 1983?

becuz the rangers r not xactly loaded with offensive players. having kinsler in the bottom of the rotation gives them more balance. if they had all their best players in the top 5 of the rotation, they wouldnt have a chance 2 score runs in every inning. hes basically going 2 clean up the batters in front of him just like #4 cleans up #1-3

Has there ever been a MLB pitcher who has pitched a perfect game?

I think you leave him right where he is in the lineup, maybe move to #2 after (or if)Tex get's going.

Do Pitchers ever apologize to the batters they bean with a pitch?

Why mess with a good thing. Hitting last in the order (I'm pretty sure he bats ninth) takes a lot of the pressure off. Hes not expected to be putting up those numbers from that spot so its all gravy for him and the team. They're winning games aren't they??
