Early Sunday musings
Posted by Bruce on Sun, 03/15/2009 - 12:02
TUCSON _ If you're doing your lineup dreaming a little early today, we got it:
Gathright, CF
Theriot, SS
Hoffpauir, LF
Fox, 1B
Fontenot, 2B
Deeds, RF
German, 3B
Hill, C
Harden, P
Yes, it's a Tucson lineup, which means many of the regulars aren't coming down here. It'll be Harden's second start, and Lou said yesterday he'll be fully ready to pitch the fourth game of the regular season.
I came away from yesterday thinking Kevin Gregg clearly has the inside track on the closer's job. I also think that's the right decision. Gregg has been more consistent down here, and Lou can always sell it to Carlos Marmol by telling him the eighth-inning role is highly important these days and that he'll have his chances to close.
More later. Looks like a great day for a game.
