W/ Lee out, this should be the lineup: Pierre (CF) Hairston (2B) Ramirez (3B) Murton (LF) Barrett © Jones (RF) Walker (1B) Cedeno (SS) Pitcher I suggest this, b/c Pierre and Hairston are speed burners, and having them in front of Ramirez, could be the spark he needs to get going, since he can get some better pitches to hit. Murton has shown he can hit, and it's time to turn the kid loose. What have you got to lose? Barrett at 5, since he's turning out to be a great hitter. Jones should bat 6th, b/c w/ Walker's stick behind him, he could get some better pitches. Cedeno 8th, b/c Walker's stick will get him on base, meaning Cedeno should get some better pitches, w/ the pitcher behind him. Walker should be 7th for the purpose of helping get Jones and Cedeno going. Now the rotation. When the twin glass dolls and Miller return, I suggest the following: Zambrano Prior Maddux Marshall Miller Wood should be moved to the pen under the win-win-win-lose plan and we go w/ a 7-man pen Then the issue about the kids. I say Marshall, Murton and Cedeno should stay w/ the MLB team, and that it's time to play the kids. I mean, the Braves had 18 rookies last year and did fine. Either play the kids NOW or screw the future to win NOW
