I'll sacrifice a few Gordon AB to get Cain up there more, if thats the furthest Yost is willing to go.
Escobar's OBP is hovering around .300, which isn't good enough for the lead-off spot. Ultimately, I think the Royals absolutely need to get Cain, Gordon, and Butler up in the first inning.

Still think Butler would be just fine in the two hole, too.
