2nd half line-up (incl. Betancourt & Gordon)

Topic of conversation:

What will the team look like when these two guys arrive to solidify our struggling and ever-changing line-up, how much will twin spark plugs little Willie and Ryno Freel play? Will TPJ finally be cast off to the island of Angel Berroa? Will they actually have the same line-up for more than two consecutive days????? Apparently Trey thinks not and is ecstatic about the opportunity to "tinker" with the line-up even more...

“It gives us the latitude to have Betancourt at short, Teahen or Gordon at third and (Alberto) Callaspo or Bloomquist at second,” Hillman said. “It gives us the ability to move guys around a little bit and keep some bodies fresher.”

Best Guess:

1) DeJesus CF (the hand your delt)
2) Maier/Willie/Freel CF-LF-RF-SS-2B (Callaspo is too obvious in the 2-hole)
3) Billy 1B-DH (hopefully some of those doubles start to get over the fence)
4) Tehan 3B-1B-LF-RF (the prototype 4-hole body with 2-hole numbers)
5) Jose LF-RF-DH (one day he'll go on one of those crazy power streaks again)
6) Gordon 3B (still waiting Alex)
7) Callaspo 2B (the lone bright spot in the line-up hits 7-hole)
8) Olivo C (please keep Buck out of the everyday line-up)
9) Betancourt SS (just field well and play everyday, pretty please)
