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
In other words, 2012 is going to look like 2011. Yikes.

If Phillips is batting cleanup again, kiss next season goodbye.
