Posted April 11, 200420 yr Nunez in the 2 hole today in LF Easley in the 6 hole 2B Ray Ray in the 7 hole no other changes
April 11, 200420 yr Personally, I would have rather seen Easley hit second and Nunez sixth, but Ive learned to trust Jack.
April 11, 200420 yr should make the game bulls***...castro with easley??? no...I would've gone with red and easley, not castro! red is hitting the ball much better. let's see how this goes, I want the S-W-E-E-P!!!! :notworthy
April 11, 200420 yr Author only change is Byrd back in the 1 hole in CF Pratt hitting in the 8 hole for Lieberthal
April 12, 200420 yr If Choi keeps up his production, I say move him to clean up, move Mikey to 3 and move Miguel to 5. That would be my ideal line up. Are ya listening, Trader Jack?????!!!!! I would like cabs closer to Pierre and Castillo but i know where your coming from with the Right Lefty Righy combo i like Cabs, Choi , Mikey better but only if choi continues to produce.
April 12, 200420 yr I can see Choi moving into the 5th spot ahead of Conine. Right now he is more of a threat, and will keep them pitching to Mikey.
April 12, 200420 yr Choi is just fine where he is. I love having Easely in their another subtle great pickup by Beinfest. Our bench is going to be great this year with Cordero, Mordecai, Easely, Harris, Castro/Redmond combo, and Abe Nunez.
April 12, 200420 yr Choi would be ideal for the 5th spot for the moment, mostly because his patience is starting to wear on opposing pitchers. Today Millwood wasn't giving him much to hit in the first at bat so he wouldn't take him yard, and since he wasn't biting at it he had to give him something that he could make contact on. He just ended up pitching around him all together later. If Choi heads up to 5th it would get more pitches for Mikey after a while. Even though Mikey is the ideal cleanup guy, I think the Cabrera-Choi-Lowell 3-4-5 combo is a nice one to try. Not only do you have the R-L-R combo, you have a nice Contact-heavy, Power-heavy, Contact-heavy combo, but you also put the best friends next to each other in the lineup. That's always good for production.
