Agreed that's obviously our best regular lineup. However we really need to find a way to get and keep Morse in the game. But they aint ready to sacrifice Morgan yet.

That's funny.
I can imagine the conversation.
Team Publicist: "Hey Jim, look what I've got here - printouts of relentless blog posting urging you to bench Nyjer, put Roger in center, and start Morse in right!"
Riggleman: "What?! Let me see what you've got there."
TP: "Here ya go."
R: "Hmmmm...it really is relentless, isn't it? I think they're on to something. It's really great how much these bloggers know about big-league managing. Kid, go get me my line-up card...I've got some changes to make."

Morse made the mistake of only getting one hit yesterday; that will teach him

Does the "b" in "twb" stand for Bowden? "Defense...we don't need no stinkin' defense. Especially with a young pitcher on the hill."

I'm just tickled by the notion that we have a standard lineup. We've been through more lineups than Pacman Jones.

Boo! I was hoping relentless blog posting would bet Morgan benched, Bernadina in Center and Morse in RF.
