My uneducated lineup prediction is, as follows:

 

Pods 7

Iguchi 4

AJP 2

Dye 0

Crede 5

Gload 3

Uribe 6

Mackowiak 9

Anderson 8

Took me awhile to figure out what the numbers were supposed to be :P

Interesting thought though.. that outfield defense wouldn't be too bad, and I like Dye at DH.

Anderson will for some reason be sitting tonight, and Mack will be in CF. Dont' ask me how it's going to happen, it's just going to happen.

Wow, the Royals' starter has a lower ERA than our starter. How often does that happen?

 

About as often that a prime-years-of-his-career-former-league-leader-in-ERA pitcher suddenly loses his fastball.

Hudson has 4 quality starts in a row. This one will not be a cake walk (are they ever anymore?). Add to this that we'll see Halladay on Friday, let's hope we're not about to hit another "bump" in the road...

 

Hudson has been pretty good lately. You want to jump him early in the count because he throws strikes and doesn't have overly impressive stuff, and he does still have an ERA of a hair over 5 and a half at home this year.

any official word on Paulie?

 

With an off day tomorrow, I expect him to rest.

 

But Hudson being a right-hander, I'm hopeful Thome can DH.

 

We definitely need to break the pattern of winning the first two games and then not finishing off the sweep.

 

Especially with the Twinkies already taking an L.

It'd be really nice if we could win, Boston, Detroit. and New York could lose. We'd have a 3 game lead on Minny, 1 game lead on NY/BOS and 6.5 back of Detroit.

 

Here's how our rotation sets up for the next few series

 

@KC: Garcia

@TOR: Garland, Vaz, Count

LA: Buehrle

NYY: Garcia, Garland, Vaz

DET: Count, Buehrle, Garcia

 

That NYY series is scaring me.

Why? Our ace Jon Garland will be pitching.

 

BTW Soriano just hit his 2nd HR today. He would have looked very nice in LF for us. Oh well.

It REALLY looks like this team will be without Thome and Konerko for the finale. This game should be pretty damn interesting.

I predict Gooch will be the DH and Cintron will be at 2B. Any word on the lineup yet?

Pods played his best position on the team yesterday. If anyone should be a DH it should be him, then move Mack into LF.
