4.	M. Byrd, RF	A. Beltre, 3B
5.	R. Howard, 1B	A. Rios, RF

Utley is out at second, Dom Brown is out and They moved howard out of the clean up...this is the managers way of saying he isnt charlie manuel...I love the phils but dont see them scoring many runs tonight. Last game's offense was a clear mirage as well due to a jet stream.

hernandez has a better glove then utley anyway.. thats actually a negative for tex backers..

could see this game going either way... Sandberg is adjusting the line up to prep for the lefty.. not sure it has anything to do with manuel.

burnett has a decent history vs these tex bats.. and is historically good in april.. phills normally struggle with a lefty they haven't seen, so that is def in your favor.

Should be interesting

yeah...i see what your saying about hernandez ...it just seems odd to me to move howard out of the clean up spot and sit two of your promising players "Cody Ashe killed it yesterday and they are sitting him for lance nix's brother....really? and dominic brown"..I know this a lefty but this isn't randy johnson.

[dlunc3]

yea, i know nix was decent vs leftys last yr.. but I agree, brown needs to be in the lineup. Makes no sense to me.. esp for shitty mayberry.. regardless of righty / lefty

It's a whole new ball game. Rangers ML.
