Lineup

Houston Astros @ Baltimore Orioles

06/17/08 6:05 PM CDT

Houston Astros	Baltimore Orioles
Michael Bourn - CF	Brian Roberts - 2B
Kazuo Matsui - 2B	Nick Markakis - RF
Miguel Tejada - SS	Melvin Mora - 3B
Lance Berkman - DH	Aubrey Huff - DH
Carlos Lee - LF	Kevin Millar - 1B
Hunter Pence - RF	Luke Scott - LF
Geoff Blum - 1B	Adam Jones - CF
Ty Wigginton - 3B	Ramon Hernandez - C
Humberto Quintero - C	Freddie Bynum - SS

Bourn back in the 1 hole... I guess his 7 hits in his last 19 AB's did that. I would have put Erstad at 1st if they are going to DH Lance instead of Blum. I'm assuming Berkman is DH'ing because of his calf... otherwise I see NO reason to DH Lance. He's already mentioned that he doesn't like being the DH and Carlos Lee is a much better option at DH(due to his defensive flaws).

Astros have lost 14 of their last 17. Hopefully the trip to the Baltimore is good for them.
