now it would be nicer if Willingham could play LF, but this is awesome enough

It's about damn time.

Um, why are people so excited to see minor leaguers? That lineup is terrible. Call me crazy, but I think they'd have a better chance at winning with Delgado, Encarnacion and Lo Duca.

Finally, Willy at C!

Prediction:

JP CF 4-5 2 triples 2 doubles

Aguila LF 2-2 2 HR 3 Walks

Conine 1B 3-4 HR Walk 2 Doubles

Cabs 3B 4-2 with 2 HRs that go so far they count em as 2 hits each

Lowell 2B 4-4 (4 double x 0.5) and 2 singles

Hammer C 3-4 2 triples and a HR

Hermida RF 2-4 HR Groundout single

Wilson SS 2-4 2 singles

Moehler P 0-4 4 K's

Oh Happy Day!

They'd have to get doubled up like 12 times for that to happen.

Good to see mikey still getting a look.

well the rest of the team puts up 1-2 runs a night, lets see what the kids can do

Recent history says you're wrong.

 

What's the worst case scenario? We lose? Boy, that'd be something new.

Ask Dontrelle how he feels about that one...

So the logic is... play these young guys since the guys they're paying millions and millions of dollars to are "probably" going to lose? You honestly would rather have Chris Aguila than Carlos Delgado in the lineup?

 

I don't know about that one. I sincerely and respectfully disagree. Play the guys that you're paying the big bucks to, and the guys the fans paid to go watch.

Some of these guys are going to be playing regularly next year. We're 80-76 and playing awful. Give the kids a look.

 

And if anyone buys a ticket to see Juan Encarnacion, I feel for them.

very nice. im glad they finally got to get a start. jack is not putting a lineup out there to win he is doing it to give the kids time

 

kudos jack

No, it's Iowa.

Which of these kids that are starting are going to be playing regularly next year besides Hermida?

No, the logic is that guys like Willingham, Hermida, Aguila and Wilson represent inexpensive options to the guys we're paying the big-bucks (or would have to pay big-bucks to in the offseason). You don't think Encarnacion (who apparantly wants to stay) has a lot riding on whether or not Hermida, and I guess to a lesser extent Pierre, plays well against major league pitching? Same with Alex rooting "against" Andino.

 

The team has to see if the kids are ready, and to be honest, losing may not be the worst thing, it's a better draft pick.

Give the "kids" a look at AAA, not in a regular season game. It's one of 162 just like any other. If they're gonna play next year, let them play next year. What does that have to do with this year? Or are they conceding the final five games? They are happy with 80-82? I'm not.

Willingham and Wilson have a shot.

Great point, I forgot AAA and major league games were the same.

 

We're playing awful, so let's stand pat! I honestly think this lineup has a better chance of winning right now. They're certainly going to play harder.

So next year's personnel decisions will be based on five starts in the final five games of the year against teams whose fates are decided??? Come on.

the season is over man... the "veterans" have completely shat the bed this month... they all look tired and clearly played tired... no reason not to see if the kids have what it takes

 

as Hugg said... worst comes to worst, we lose again
