I'm glad I bought a ticket to THIS game

I’d much rather see this lineup than last night’s lineup. Of course SOS could make it all irrelevant.

You may know me as NYRoyal.

I need to go take a Davies and wipe my Elarton. Excuse me.

Yup

Runs are nice.

And they scored 11 runs!

This line-up is actually good, not just “good for the Royals.” Batters 1-7 are all decent, good or perhaps very good hitters. The only weaknesses offensively come from the catcher and the shortstop. This is how a big league line-up should look!

Move Gordon to the 2 hole and hit Hosmer 3rd

and I’m good. Melky would move down to 7 and Betemit would go up to 6. That’s where I’d go with it.

Yes

Ideally, I’d have Hosmer 2nd, and have Gordon protecting him. I like Hosmer’s OBA and baserunning.

2B Aviles
1B Hosmer
LF Gordon
DH Butler
3B Betimet
RF Francoeur
CF Cabrera
C Treanor/Pena
SS Escobar
