I find the lineups interesting for a variety of reasons. Of course Ensberg in the two hole is something we've seen before, and I will continue to like it, until Scott (or Lane) show us that they are unable to hold down # 5.
Ever see a game where one team had the DH, and the other team didn't?
Josh Anderson in left for RRX is also interesting, simply because he's a better centerfielder than Pence. If we continue to see Pence in center when the Express start their regular season, it will convince me that Burke is on a rather short leash.
And Conrad, not Pence, in the four hole for Round Rock. Think about that for a little bit.
Didn't know that the organization had re-acquired Todd Self. Always liked his plate discipline, if not his meager power. Good luck, Todd.
Oh, and nearly forgot: happy birthday, Eric Bruntlett.
