I would hope that Jones would be the primary starter, but Kotsay has gotten both starts against RHP so far.

Carmona is a tough starter and on opening day I think Ozzie wanted to give Kotsay the start with Rios in CF. Ozzie has said that Jones is going to play a lot early on and we will see it, especially against Minny.

Its 2 games. Obviously Ozzie is about the only human being alive that thinks Mark Kotsay is perfect as a DH hitting fifth, but it is only 2 games. He's 0-5. There isn't anyone who has played MLB that hasn't been 0-5 at some point. If KW really despised this idea as much as he wants you to believe, he's not going to stand around and do nothing for a couple of months if they aren't getting production. I'm not that worried about it yet, although I have always wondered what Mark Kotsay brings offensively that is better than what Jim Thome brings.
