You have Fukudome and Colvin both listed for RF Bruce. I'm assuming Colvin defers to Fukudome and moves over to left?

 

As for Fontenot, does the organization still have any trust left in him at SS after last years debacle? I'm not saying to start, but after last year it seems that his days at SS were at an end even as a occasional thing.

Fixed. No, I don't think they like him at SS. They're just trying things this spring.

[Derwood]

is it just me, or does McGehee get a ton of spring PT every year?

[Ding Dong Johnson]

OMG, McGehee beat out Aramis???

[Schwarber Fan]

Ramirez out of the lineup again is worrying me.

[anabiono]

fontenot at short...this will be good times...

 

i am trying not to be worried about aramis....

 

another week and i might be close to pushing the panic button though

[anabiono]

starting off with some white stripes!!!

 

nice~!

[JonnyRed]

Didn't they say A-Ram was going to be out until Thursday? No need to panic boys, look at it this way, we haven't seen one towel drill!

[cheapseats]

In the regular season, I'd be happy to have Dempster start against the Brewers.

[anabiono]

weeks grounded out to fontenot...and he makes the play!

 

man, i don't know about you guys, but i have a really easy time rooting for dempster...i still may be uneasy about him being a starter...but he is easier to root for compared to marquis...
