That being said, here is how I see the lineup next year:
1. Stubbs CF: I think he finally puts it all together and can bat leadoff.
2. Cozart/Janish SS
3. Votto 1B
4. Phillips 2B
5. Bruce RF
6. Yonder/Sappelt LF
7. Rolen/Frazier 3B
8. Hanny/Puxatonany Mes
Rotation:
1. Cueto
2. Leake
3. Homer
4. Arroyo
5. (Chapman), Willis, Wood, LeCure.
Pen:
Closer: Billy Bray/Chappy
Masset
Logan
Horst
Lecure/Maloney
Boxberger
