With Crush gone, it would be great if the catchers can keep up their surprising offensive performance and Schoop transforms into the phenom we've been hoping for. Unlikely, but not as much as the prospect of Flaherty/Johnson turning into hit machines; I just hope they can turn in good D at third and hit a little more than they have so far. Resting Hardy recently may turn out to have been crucial to keeping the infield D together the rest of the way.

Holy crap. Nellie better come through with 7 RBI again.

I thought you had to at least take three regulars with you for spring training games.

I approve this lineup.

I approve this lineup.

Even Ubaldo on Tuesday?

[mdbdotcom]

Even Ubaldo on Tuesday?

Absolutely. He's still on the team and we need a 6th starter because of the double-header. If he blows up it won't kill us. If he performs well it will be a bonus.

[Palmoripken]

It would be cool if we were in a position to clinch Tuesday and Ubaldo got to. He's had a tough year but he's been a team first guy throughout it all.

[callahan09]

Ubaldo! ? Come on let's wrap up the division officially before we start trotting him out there hahaha. I wanna stomp every opponent until it is official! I mean, we COULD have it locked up by Tuesday, I think, but it seems doubtful. But if we lock it up with a win ON Tuesday with Ubaldo starting I will laugh and laugh.
