I was going to title it "Reed's back" but I didnt want to sound off any alarms

Yeah I don't think that Lind would've made that catch...or Stairs for that matter!

Great to see him back and looks like he is in great shape too. Hopefully he will help us score runs more consistently. Also Overbay should be back soon. Anybody knows when exactly?

What do we do with Wells? Do we keep him in the lead off spot since he is doing so well there? I like our 1-2-3 now, Wells, Reed and Rios.

I'd have to disagree a little bit. There's more oppurtunity for Wells to come up with men on base in the two hole rather than leading off. Look at Rios, if he was batting 3rd all year, he's probably have an extra 15-20 RBI's. How amny solo shots has he had or leadoff doubles?

I'd personally go with a rotation....when Overbay gets back of...

Reed
VDub
Rios
Thomas
Glaus
Overbay
Hill
Zaun
McDonald

With Matt Stairs(1B), Royce Clayton(SS) and Curtis Thigpen (Catcher) subbing in and out of the lineup at the right times.

The problem is, Wells has sucked all season, except he is hitting around .350 in the leadoff spot. Dont fix it if it isnt broken.

yes....plus Wells is not that good with men on base. We got to keep him there as long as he is hitting well in that spot.

Well Mak, so much for our consensus - back to the 3 hole and goes 0-for-3
