I agree...even if we bend towards the side of over-spending, re-sign Paulie....he has become the face of this franchise and we need that to keep getting butts in the stands. And if Frank comes back healthy, this lineup will be even better than last year. Imagine Frank for a full year driving in Scott and Guch....
Starting Lineup:
Pods
Guch
Frank
Paulie
Dye
Rowand
AJP
Crede
Uribe
Starting Pitchers:
Count
Buerhle
Garland
Garcia
BMac
Bullpen:
El Duque (middle relief, long relief if a starter falters or rain delays)
Politte (set up)
Hermanson (set up)
Jenks (closer)
Marte (set up)
Cotts (set up)
Vizcaino (relief when we are losing by big lead or up by big lead)
Bench:
Anderson (Platoon OF to spell Pods, Dye and Rowand and play ~70+ games)
Widger (back up C)
Geoff Blum (Utility infielder)
Ross Gload (1B/extra DH)
Pablo Ozuna (Utility infielder)
Everett????
Willi Harris????
Timo Perez???
Thats basically exactly what I want to see.
