I'm not a big Brownlie guy, although his average is 32 (not great anyway), his big scores have come after being dropped several times, law of averages states that eventually those catches will stick and he'll drop right back down to averaging about 25. Having said that, I guess we have to wait until that happens before his place is in real jeopardy. Guptill's batted okay at five before, and considering we won't be dropping our openers (despite how unsustainable these performances are), Brownlie is the only droppable guy.
