Go Gators!
I knew Edwin wouldn't play today. Narron is awful!!!
Why oh why does Narron keep batting Aurilia 4th? Dude must have pictures...
Games are won on run differential -- scoring more than your opponent. Runs are runs, scored or prevented they all count the same. Worry about scoring more and allowing fewer, not which positions contribute to which side of the equation or how "consistent" you are at your current level of performance.
Well...On the bright side, Freel's leading off and Dunn's batting second.
It falls apart south of Griffey, though.

castro in for felipe i can see felipe can't hit righ handers this season freel in teh lineup always a plus dunn batting second good rich batting 4th=bad bad bad
Not very impressive on paper, but it seems like we do tend to win when Aurilia
plays 1st...
I don't like Castro for FeLo, but everything else passes the look test. We need Uncle Milty to pitch like the old pro he is. We need to make a statement that we are not going to lie down and die.

I think Narron is just tired of shoddy defense.
In Narrons defense Felipe had some really weak swings last night and overall horrible at-bats and just looked tired. Not sure why the over-valuing of Castro though- the guy is a defensive replacement plain and simple.
