We had Edmonds, we had Fuk, Fontenot started one game, Z started one game, Fontenot was also available to start more if we wanted, Hoffpauir could have been on the roster if we wanted.
And what if we faced the Phillies or Mets who had a left handed ace? Its a cop out excuse, we were fine with our lineup in the regular season and it was fine in the postseason, we were 20 games over .500 against right handers in the regular season, so why was it all of the sudden a problem for those 3 games? We got a bad match up and our players panicked and shit the bed from the moment Loney's grand slam cleared the wall.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
