Lineup with his notes.

1.Colby Rasmus, LF … Led all Double-A players with 29 homers last season.
2.Joe Mather, 1B … Breakout year included 31 homers in 2007.
3.Rick Ankiel, CF … Hit 43 homers at Triple-A and the majors in ‘07.
4.Troy Glaus, 3B … Once led the AL in homers with 47 in 2000.
5.Juan Gonzalez, DH … Two-time MVP has five 40-plus homer seasons.
6.Ryan Ludwick, RF … Is only a few years removed from 28 HR in Triple-A.
7.Yadier Molina, C
8.Adam Kennedy, 2B
9.Cesar Izturis, SS

And that is without Albert Pujols (day off) and Chris Duncan (stiff back; more below), but they would up the pop by substracting one of the hitters above. Consider their subs just power proxy.

Starting pitcher: RHP Braden Looper. Also scheduled to pitch: LHP Ron Villone; LHP Ron Flores; RHP Blake Hawksworth; RHP Russ Springer; RHP Kelvin Jimenez; RHP Mark Worrell.


I'm going out for a while.

We got bombed 20 - 6. Can Izturis do anything? Is he scrap?

Izturis....2-20 this spring with 4 errors (as per Rotoworld). Just fantastic. Ryan isn't the starter....why?

I hope they can't send Izturis to Memphis to be another Spivey.
Memphis can't get any crowds with those crappy teams.
They are trying to do anything to get people to take tickets.
Desperation.
