Whoa ... freaky lineup!

C. Figgins 3b 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 .293
C. Kotchman 1b 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 .289
M. Izturis ss 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 .265
V. Guerrero rf 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 .283
T. Hunter cf 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 .272
G. Anderson dh 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 .255
G. Matthews Jr. lf 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 .241
H. Kendrick 2b 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 .305
J. Mathis c 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 .214

I really like putting Kotchman 2nd, and dropping G.A. to 6th. Kendrick is too low. Izturis 3rd is … kind of crazy. Nice to see him paired w/ Mathis, instead of Aybar. And if Sarge Jr. is gonna play, it’s good to see him in the field….

by lesserknown on Jul 1, 2008 7:21 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

What's scary is he's basically a two-pitch pitcher.

He’s staying away from his slider and split-finger. If he used those…

Early signs aren't encouraging...

A’s hitters are singling away at Ervin, and Harden hasn’t allowed a ball past the infield.
