May 1, 200521 yr I assume Easley in again for Castillo? With Luis hip and leg problems, don't see him as a mudder. Too risky. Treanor in for LoDuca? Easy past week for LoDuca but a frustrating week for all starters. And Treanor needs to be kept sharp, so to speak. Day off tomorrow but a major confrontation thereafter in Atlanta. Beckett's performance will be important for many reasons including extra Psyche power going into Atlanta. Amazing, across the leagues, the extensive injuries. Mulit-million dollar players with the best trainers going Disabled. Somehow, Jack has to keep the Bench and Pen ready. That means playing them.
May 1, 200521 yr My Sunday Special Pierre Easely Delgado Miggy Encar Lowell Gonzo Treanor Nothing too different
May 1, 200521 yr Author My sub-title "please post" was for the actual line-up but the anticipated is fun and well-received.
May 1, 200521 yr Jeff Conine is batting 17/30 of Lidle (.567) with 3 HRs. Encarnacion is batting .400 against him, but that is a much smaller sample size of 5 at-bats. Seeing as it's Sunday, there is absolutely no reason why Steve shouldn't start... but I'm sure Jack isn't thinking about that. :confused I also wouldn't be surprised to see Treanor, as he has handled Beckett very well this year.
May 1, 200521 yr Lineup is the same as it has been JP Easley Delgado Cabs Enc Lo Duca Lowell Agon Beckett
