To me this team has to finish at 81 wins and has to do it with 5 players playing on this team by the end. Conor Jackson(already starting to happen), Carlos Quentin, Miguel Montero, Casey Daigle,and Stephen Drew need to be given a chance here to see what they got. I would also like ot see Green given a shot at some point.

My lineup I would like to see here real soon-you can platoon Tracy around enough between 3 spots to get him almost everyday. Maybe we sit Glaus down to heal and let Tracy play the rest of the way at third.

2b Craig Counsell
1b Jaskson/Clark/Tracy
rf Quentin/Tracy
3b Glaus/Tracy
lf Gonzo/Quinten
ss Stephen Drew
cf Green
c Montero and Snyder/Hill
pVazquez/Webb/Hasley/Varges/Gosling-let him go the rest of the way

That would leave Clayton, Terrero and Contron on the beach with who ever else is not starting in my platooning.

Estes will take one spot when he is healthy, Webb seems tired, maybe when he is healthy, we DL Webb for a bit.

Bullpen
Closer-Lyon is close to returning
Setup=Daigle(he has be great as a closer in AA)/Valverde(he seems back)
the rest
Bruney
Cromier
Aquino(got see if he can still have it.

We have not lefty in the pen, and that scared me, we, need to hope Villareal comes back soon or trade for one, or send Gosling or Estes to the pen when Estes is healthy.


So that is what I would like ot see.

Um...wow. There is almost zero chance of Montero or Drew being up on the big league roster at the end of the year, let alone starting.

I never said there was a chance, it is just what I would like to see. I would also like to se Ortiz win games like he did in Atlanta, but it does not mean it is going to happen. :)

Plus I think in the real baseball world Snyder and Hill would still playing in the minors, but we watned to see what they had now and Drew was suppose to be the major league ready of any draft pick form over a year ago and Montero is where Snyder was a year ago. So why not.

I predict Brian Bruney will suddenly and totally unexpectedly start throwing submarine style which was inspired by his idol Byung Hyun Kim
