Narron sure loves to use Conine as the cleanup hitter.

That Burrell is a very expensive bench player.
Career vs Moyer:
Conine - .360/.433/.760/1.193 in 29 plate appearances
Junior - .364/.417/.636/1.053 in 24 plate appearances
Gonzalez is 4-4 with 2 doubles and a homerun.
Kind of inconsistent.
I love Hamilton leading off, but it would seem that Narron's so matchup crazy that leading off a lefthander would be taboo. Strange.
Why is Phillips always batting at the top of the order? Oh, I forgot. Speed. Never mind that his OBP is, at .324 only 6th best. Jerry's lineup in OBP is:
.359
.324 (Phillips)
.385
.340
.361
.346
.297
.255
Conine at cleanup is really strange when your two power hitters are batting 3rd and 5th. Whoa! I forgot our two power hitters are leftys. Never mind their former success against the pitcher. We must split up those leftys, right?
It's really not that bad of a lineup (lilke I said, i especially like Hamilton leading off), but I would prefer:
Hamilton (.359)
Encarnacion (.346)
Griffey (.385)
Dunn (.361)
Conine (.340)
Phillips (.324)
Gonzo (.297)
Ross (.255).
