Since Robbins is a Lefty

1. Frazier ss. L
2. Henderson lf. R
3. Detz DH. L
4. Renfroe rf. R
5. Rea 1b. R
6. Ct cf. L
7. Slaughter c R
8. Norris 3b. R
9. Pirtle 2b. S

I might would swap CT and Henderson. All depends if CT is hitting the ball down in BP. If ct is in the two hole I swap detz and renfroe.

We need to get Rea at bats before this weekend. Can not seen him having a good game his first game back vs Nola.

I do not like Pirtle besides his glove. But I think Cohen will play him.

I'd be down with that 1-9. If Pirtle could just hit .230 his glove makes him valuable. The most mind boggling thing about this season is not seeing Detz play 2B. It makes absolutely no sense.

Norris baffles me even more than that. I guess it's just more believable to me that Detz maybe just isn't as strong of a middle infielder as Cohen would like. I see NO reason why Daryl Norris isn't the full time starter at 3B though.

Except Rea is obviously hurt and Detz is our best backup. I wouldn't be surprised to see him move to second once Rea is healthy.

I'd be fine with that. Like many in this thread have mentioned, it would thrill me to see us come out with Detz at 2B, Rea at 1B, and Norris at 3rd. I could even live with Renfroe in the 4. Something like this....

SS Frazier
LF Henderson
2B Detz
RF Renfroe
1B Rea
DH Porter
C Slauter
3B Norris
CF Bradford

But I'm expecting Rea to DH tonight against the lefty IF he's going to play Friday night. Probably something like...

SS Frazier
LF Henderson
1B Detz
RF Renfroe
DH Rea
CF Bradford
C Slauter
3B Norris
2B Pirtle/Frost

I'd just as soon have Frost as Pirtle......Pirtle may have a little more pop in

his bat but his average is horrific and they are equal in the field from what I've seen.........

I still have no clue why we have not tried detz at third or second. Norris is very capable of playing 1st.

I've been wondering that too, especially after Detz's success and Norris' defensive mistakes. Why not at least try Detz at 3rd and Norris at 1b for a couple games? I'm sure Cohen has seen Detz field 1000 ground balls over there, so he knows something we don't. All I can figure is that it's still Norris' spot. We need him in the lineup, and who do we have that will field that much better and bat within 50 points of Norris? Nobody.

Fyi - "Detz what I'm talkin' bout!" is mine. I invented it.

The ? this game is obviously Hann. Is Rea going to start Friday? If he is he should be able to start tonight. Oh well. Not a bad lineup against good competition.
