He has been hitting great and they still have him batting 6th...

Since May 11th:

18/59 (.305) 12 R, 5 HR and 12 RBI

When do they move him back up?

I've been wondering the same thing. Then again, Vernon has been producing lately, so if it ain't broke, why fix it?

I agree with this. He seems suited to the 3 spot, but if he's hitting well after a horrid start, I wouldn't tinker. He has had a couple games in the 5 spot lately.

Was in the 5 hole tonight, but only went:

0/3 with a BB...

But as a whole TOR didnt bat very well tonight, lets hope he stays in the top half of the line-up ;-D

Hitting well? Better take a good look at his numbers over that last two weeks. he has one game with two home runs . the next game he has a couple of hits . then nothing for three or four days . Slow starter? 1st of June guys. Hell Marcus Thames has numbers almost as good as Wells and he has only played part time.

You obviously don't understand big words like "well".

Seeing as his season average is .234 (was < .220) and in the last month he's hit .276 5 HRs 12 RBIs 2 SB.

So yes, since the horrid start, he has hit pretty well. His average is up, HRs heated up, and hopefully the RBIs will start coming. Is he hitting well compared to A-rod? Well no. But he clearly referenced it by stating how bad of a start he got off to. He never said he's having a slow start as you yapped how it's June 1st. He said he got off to a horrid start, but is NOW hitting well. This is fairly accurate.

So unless you really have anything to add (beyond whining about someone’s post, when in fact you're the one you failed to grasp his simple points) then you should probably keep it to yourself.
