I prefer a walk to a bunt anyway. You don't have to worry about legging out a walk.

So what are you proposing for a lineup?

Fukudome
Bradley
Lee
Ramirez
Soto
Soriano
Theriot
Worthless 2B
Pitcher

That would potentially put the only two guys batting lefty in the lineup at the very top.

If we only have two left-handed hitters anyway, there's not much point in splitting them. Seemed to get us into the playoffs last year.

Plus what is the alternative? Throwing Bradley after Soriano still leaves you all right-handed through the heart of the order. Plus Bradley isn't even hitting .200 from the left side of the plate, is he? Might as well have all righties.

That and depending on who's pitching, Theriot and Fukudome can be switched around.

Right, Lou said when he dropped Soriano that Fuku would lead off against righties and Johnson against lefties.

And Bradley backs up my argument with a nifty 0-5 at the plate last night.

You can't win 'em all.

I just dropped in to remind everyone that Joe Morgan is an asshole.
Oh and I'll give Bradley a pass if his On base % picks up.
