Quote of the day
"The problem is center. They don’t have one." -- NBA analyst David Aldridge, on Miami’s chances to beat the Pacers Daily blurb
Interleague play starts today. Roto teams with A.L. designated hitters playing in N.L. parks get screwed. Daily contest entrants need to be careful about starting lineups. And historical batter vs pitcher matchup data becomes very limited. Such is the beast of interleague play. Having said that, I do see that both Konerko and Dunn are in today’s starting lineup in Wrigley Field (with Dunn in left field.) I’ve also heard that Adrian Gonzalez may play some outfield this weekend in Philly, in order to keep Ortiz in the starting lineup. Then again, the way Adrian Gonzalez has (not) been hitting, maybe a few days off wouldn’t be such a bad idea. He reportedly guaranteed a home run for Thursday night’s game. The result: 0-3 (HBP, strikeout, ground out, fly out). He is now trailing Albert Pujols in home runs for the year. |
