July 26, 200422 yr Good Jack....keep the lineup out there and pray it works or rains and you have the lead.

July 26, 200422 yr Is it raining in Miami? It's raining where I live, an hour away. 476749[/snapback] no its not raining here.
July 26, 200422 yr Author Here's the line up I would like to see. Have Choi with the highest OBP on the team move JP and Luis along and set the table for our power hitters. 1 Juan Pierre, CF 2 Luis Castillo, 2B 3 Hee Seop Choi, 1B 4 Miguel Cabrera, RF 5 Mike Lowell, 3B 6 Jeff Conine, LF 7 Alex Gonzalez, SS 8 Mike Redmond, C 9 A.J. Burnett, P That said, I doubt Jack would ever use it. He seems content to keep Mikey batting 3rd.

July 26, 200422 yr Have you guys ever thought that Mikey may have requested to bat third behind Castillo and Pierre? Sometimes you have to keep the players happy in certain positions in the batting order. Do you see Cox changing his lineup around in Atlanta although A Jones has been slumping most of the year? NO!

I understand your argument, but I think Conine would be better suited at 3 because he makes a lot of contact and doesnt strike out much. I would actually rather see Choi at the 2...
