Friday morning
The radar looks intimidating this morning, but they should be able to get the game in, especially since the Phillies are already at the park. Assuming they play, here’s the, um, unique lineup:
- Granderson, CF
- Guillen, DH
- Wilson, C
- Shelton, 1B
- Inge, 3B
- Ordonez, RF
- Watson, LF
- N. Perez, 2B
- Dlugach, SS
For what it’s worth, Sheffield isn’t listed on the lineup card for the game. He is, however, on the travel roster for Saturday against the Blue Jays.

One of the funny things this spring has been listening to other team’s announcers struggle with the pronunciation of Dlugach. One guy, I think it was Dodgers, just gave up and stated that all the letters in the name are silent.

I attended the game today and see Chris Shelton stepping into the ball quite well.What’s up with the Thames,Shelton scenario or did I miss something?-Thanks
