will not happen but

[hembo36]

the lineup, based on performance, would be like this if i was manager

loretta ss
lamb 3b
pence cf
lee rf
berkman 1b
scott rf
biggio 2b
ausmus c
pitchers spot

[hembo36]

whatever the case may be if everett plays he would bat 9th..partly to embarass him but also because in reality some of the pitchers hit better...a few years ago the cardinals had a catcher that was so bad that he did actually hit 9th in the order...im thinking it was molina? why biggio is leading off is a perfect example of politics in MLB.....
