Fuk sitting against the lefty again, Ramirez is still a couple days away.
You know things aren't going real well when its May and Rich Harden has the 3rd best batting average in the lineup.

Lefty or not, Fukudome should be in the lineup.

I think Lou's just trying to get Milton on track. Let him build off the blast last night and hopefully keep hitting. And we know Reed's going to play all the time against lefties as he should.

<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->Hanley Ramirez (wrist) could be available to pinch hit Friday night.
Ramirez has missed three games since leaving Monday night with a bruised hand and wrist, but reportedly felt strong on Friday morning. He could return to the starting lineup this weekend.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Yes, and I'd swap Johnson and Fontenot.

<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Fontenot's 0 for 12 against lefties this year, and has a career .212 batting average and .599 OPS against them. He shouldn't be playing against lefties at all, but if he is, shouldn't be batting higher than 7th until he can show he's capable of hitting them.
Reed's a career .311 hitter with an .833 OPS against lefties.

The way Fuk is seeing the ball and way we are struggling to score runs, I think he needs to be in there everyday. In general I like playing Reed against lefties, but not with Fuk so hot.
Hopefully we will crush this shmuck and it won't matter.

Yeah, to me 2004 felt like that all year long, any and every break went against us all year and so far this year seems the same. Hope things turn around.

Cantu is too hot right now. In that situation, with 1B open, I would definitely not have pitched to him.

I hope Bradley's OK. That tag looked kind of rough [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img]
