Pods can grab some bench, he looks like he needs a rest anyways...
1-rios-cf (speed and power combo at the top. A lot of potential leadoff doubles instead of singles)
2-beckham-3b
3-thome-dh (still draws the BB enough, gotta keep that OBP production near the top of the lineup)
4-Q-lf
5-dye-rf (interchangeable w/paulie, a SLIGHT edge to jd on speed)
6-aj-c (really deserves a higher spot with his 300 average, but lack of power drops him down here, as well as breaking up the righty parade)
7-paulie-1b (interchangeable w/dye)
8-lexi-ss (another speed and power combo guy, starts 4 straight batters with speed)
9-getz-2b
When Pods does play...
-drop him into leadoff and LF
-use either thome or Q as your dh in the 3 hole
-move JD to cleanup and AJ to 5th, and drop Rios into the 6 hole
-everything else stays the same. I espcially like the Lexi-Getz-Pods or Lexi-Getz-Rios stretch once the lineup turns over within any given game.
