Looks like the opening day lineup to me.

not to nitpick, but opening day game is in Cincinnati, so no DH either.  One of Trumbo/Bourjos/Pujols will not be starting.

i been out of touch for a while. why is JW starting instead of one of the regular 5?

[worldofx]

Pujols single-handedly making up for the loss of Torii.

[The Dude]

Thanks for heads up guys. Flipped it on just in time to catch the excellent baserunning display from Albert.

Weaver started in a camp game earlier today.  Last start he was going through a 'dead arm' phase - which is normal for him in spring - and I guess they figured they didn't need to have him pitch against the Rangers in Surprise, which is a launching pad.  He's also going to face them for real in a couple weeks.

Houston beat Detroit. Verlander losing Pitcher.

[heaven101]

Williams always sucks against the ranger. 

[2002_halos_II]

no outs 1 - 0 Tejas

[Chuck]

The Angels need a new baserunning coach. 

 

Oh and yeah, Jerome always has a tough time with Texas.

[heaven101]

texas looks like they are stacked again this year even with out Josh in the lineup.

you can mostly thank our atrocious minor league pitchers for that.  in other words, I wouldn't lose any sleep over it.

[Chuck]

Just wondering. Is this a STATEMENT GAME???

[Chuck]

Nice inning Jerome. Limited the damage.
