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….

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…

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

hmm.. stupid pinch running move

now we have to rely on Q for defense in the 9th. bad idea

No

We need the run. Kotch is too slow. Can’t rely on his glove when you don’t have a lead or a tie to protect.
