Ongoing lineup thread for 2013

[Can_of_corn]

Glad to see the Orioles are playing in Sarasota and have to play some of their regulars.

Schoop is the only reason I have any desire to watch this game.

What a lineup, baby !!!

9 runs !!!

Much closer to 14 then to being no hit.

Pridie with 2 straight starts. Maybe management sees something. Odd. No Morse against a lefty suggests to me that those who think or hope we might bring him back via FA may be disappointed.

Hit 2 homers in one game? Here have seat today.

I'll never understand Buck's fascination and subsequent hatred of Flaherty. He keeps him on the roster for 2 straight years and yet doesn't give him many opportunities. <a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1106.photobucket.com/albums/h367/isestrex/Emoticons/shrug.gif" border="0" alt=" photo shrug.gif"/></a>

I think he had his chance to make an impression and failed miserably.

At this point, play the kids and see what you have, to help make the decision for next year's roster.

I'm don't believe that Buck hates Flaherty stuff (there are politics involved), but it is kinda disappointing he's not playing tonight.

Without looking, I think Roberts does ahve good numbers against Buehrle, but at this point who cares. Play Flaherty. it'd also be nice for Flaherty to get some AB's against a LHP and Buerhle isn't one of those crazy platoon splits that lefties can't hit.

I agree, but what "kids" are there to play, other than Schoop?

Pridie. Which is playing. Some was questioning the daily roster, as usual.

We know what we have in Flash and I doubt Morse will be signed to a new contract.

Pridie is 29 years old. He's not a kid, or a prospect.

Well, okay, but if he is young enough to be my child, which he is, then he is a kid in my eyes.

Sorry, wasn't trying to disrespect the man.

There must be some reason he was at AAA, and I assumed, he was up for an audition for next year.

5 days of games at the major league level is not going to impact any decisions.

This is a reward for Pridie. He may well be auditioning for next year to an extent, but he would return on a minor league deal.

Makes just as much sense to me to take a look at Valencia at 3B. And take advantage of the lefty/righty matchup.
