To ensure DJ and Hines break out today... here's my lineup against UT:

1. Chance LF
2. Mershon SS
3. Hujsak CF
4. Larry 2B
5. Kohler 3B
6. Powell C
7. Stevens 1B
8. Pulliam RF
9. Chester DH

Let's face it... neither of them are ever going to hit again until we unite and demand they be benched.

Is Downs still hurt? I might DH him if healthy, but otherwise I like that lineup. I do think it would do those two some good to reset before next week.

I’d sit Hujsak as well. No need to risk aggravating that back in tonight’s game. I’d tell the team just relax & have fun. We’re going to pitch by committee & get some innings for some guys who maybe haven’t gotten many this year. Then we’ll either play tomorrow or go home & get ready for the regional.

second thought, think I’d get Cupp in for Koehler too.

We’re almost 3-0 in the tournament with them… but would very likely be 3-0 without them
