Wells and Trumbo day off and into the batting cages. I was hoping Amarista would play, I don't like anybody sitting for most of 4 games.

Guess this proves that Abreu isn't just playing due to Bourgos' sore hip.

MSP is sure going to be shock for a team that has spent the last month and1/2 in 80 deg weather.
Hope they packed their long-johns and hand warmers.

Pretty cool that we have one of the best lefties in the game to go against Mauer and Morneau. If we can contain them we should be fine in this series.

I know especially after what we saw with Wells yesterday.

Wells and Trumbo should not be in the lineup together. 2 free swingers shortens the game in a negative way for us.

Aybar
Collaspo
Kendrick
Albert
Morales
Hunter
Wells
Iannetta
Peter B

OB is key. We have enough pop.

Trumbo is the odd man out, but Bobby will still have a nice OB vs rightys which means we would have to play him in LF once and a while.

The best scenario would be that Trumbo is in/ Wells is out.

This lineup will break things up... I think Trumbo should get an outfield glove ready! Leftfield and Right is where he should get some AB's.

Golly gee I hope so. It would be awkward if (read when) Abreu stinks and you have to boycott until they play Wells again.

Which is probably EXACTLY why MS decided to make Wilson the 4th starter, instead of the 3rd. Some were questioning that decision.

"I was hoping Amarista would play, I don't like anybody sitting for most of 4 games."

Amarista isn't going to get any starts, and Izturis will get few. They are backup players.

Callaspo will be in the same boat in a month or two, after Trumbo becomes the primary 3Bman.
