herky Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 Why Prior as the 5th starter? I know Zambrano's been called to start the first game but shouldn't Prior be 2nd? It's not 100% sure Prior will be ready for opening day. His rehab from injury is going well however. Prior has been throwing off the mound for a couple weeks but they won't know any more until spring. If you want you could put Prior as the #2 and start Miller at AAA. That would work as well.

tejdog1 Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 In the same vein, here is what I think the Mets opening day lineup is going to be: Jose Reyes - SS Paul Lo Duca - C Carlos Beltran - CF Carlos Delgado - 1B David Wright - 3B Moises Alou - LF Shawn Green - RF Jose Valentin - 2B Tom Glavine - SP Orlando Hernandez - SP John Maine - SP Oliver Perez - SP Phillip Humber - SP Pedro is out until August, so whatever you do there... CP - Billy Wagner SUP - Aaron Heilman SUP - Duaner Sanchez MRP - Juan Padilla MRP - Pedro Feliciano MRP - John Adkins LRP - Dave Williams/Scott Schoneweis (sp?) ----- Edit: Did you like my meep file?

Totte Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 Edit: Did you like my meep file? Thanks bro. I haven't had time to look at the mep's yet as I've been out of the house all afternoon/night. I did however add the Blue Jays mep's from cybernetic this morning :wtg: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfgiantsflgators Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 Just a couple of tidbits from Rotoword on lineups: PIT - Jim Tracy has "no intention" of taking Jack Wilson out of the #2 spot in the lineup. Media type guys have said that Wilson hinders the Pirates offense in that spot but it appears that Tracy doesn't hold that belief. CWS - Ken Williams and the White Sox are confident that Juan Uribe could be there for spring training as the man who fingered Uribe in the alleged gun firing incident failed to show up in court. Originally, it was thought that Uribe could miss most, if not all, of the season as court proceedings went on in the Domincan Republic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleD Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 Joining in on the fun! This is a COMPLETE rough draft, there's a lot of people fighting for spots (expecially the bullpen and CF) so nothing can be said as fact until after Spring Training. This is what I think will happen though. Order SS Hanley Ramirez 2B Dan Uggla 3B Miguel Cabrera 1B Mike Jacobs LF Josh Willingham RF Jeremy Hermida CF Alex Sanchez C Miguel Olivo Bench UTIL Alfredo Amezaga IF Aaron Boone OF Eric Reed OF Cody Ross OF Joe Borchard C Matt Treanor SP Dontrelle Willis Scott Olsen Josh Johnson Anibal Sanchez Ricky Nolasco Bullpen Yusmeiro Petit LRP Renyel Pinto MRP Henry Owens MRP Kevin Gregg MRP Carlos Martinez MRP (Might not be ready by the time the season starts [should be healthy sometime from April-June], but I think he'll be on the team once he's healthy. Also, he throws a two-seam fastball not ingame) Closer Taylor Tankersley --I think it'll be Jacobs - Willingham - Hermida rather than Willingham - Jacobs - Hermida like it was at the end of last year because, because it would make the lineup Righty-Lefty-Righty-Lefty rather than R-R-L-L (And it was like that at the begining of last season, until Jacobs and Hermida got injured) --Depending on the CF position, they might drop one (Borchard most likely) and call up Andino instead. Last year, due to OF being the weakest position, they had a lot of OF's called up. With CF still wide open, I see it happening again until CF is locked up. If the bullpen struggles again this year, they also might have an additional pitcher instead of Andino. --What I currently seeing happening at CF: Sanchez in at the start of the games because of his offense and speed, and Reed in at the end of games. Reed is the best deffensive OF the Marlins have. What they also might do is start Amezaga against RHP, and Sanchez against LHP. --With a new manager coming in, Uggla might move into the middle of the lineup since he's more of a power hitter, and whoever wins the CF job might move up to the #2 slot. I really hope this doesn't happen, but with the tradional way to set a lineup being putting your two speedsters in the #1 and #2 spot, it could be likely if Sanchez wins the job (Since he's a 40+ SB, high BAA guy). --Closer is currently listed as Tank on offical depths, but I'm positive that will change by the time the season starts. EDIT: Oh, also, I think Jeff Allison should be rmoved from Florida's farm system. Although he still is team property, he's been on the suspended list for awhile, is facing jail time, and looks like it's unlikely he'll be back in baseball, atleast not for awhile.

Totte Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 Is Yusaka Iriki and Edgardo Alfonzo still in the Mets organisation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony3 Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 11/01/06, Alfonzo opted for minor league free agency. 11/15/06, Mets declined RHP Yusaku Iriki's $1.5 million option for 2007. And it seems there are too many players in the Giants' organiztion. These six-year free agents can be moved first if player cut is needed.

Totte Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 1 error, 6 warnings. This is where it stops for now as I'm going out to dinner with a friend. What remains to be done is to create new players in the Phillies system and fix the lineups/rotations (the warnings) + clearing out the FA-list which is maxed out by about 100 players (the error). I won't have time to do a Plus version today but you'll get a standard unless the rosters crash when I do my beta test later on tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
