| Can go with 5sp and 3rp or 4 & 4. This week starts tonight and looking for suggestions. Byrd @Min (Radke) Millwood @Bal (Benson) Lackey vs TB (Seo) Olsen vs Hou(Buchholz) Zito @Bos (Beckett) Lieber @SF (Morris) Marquis vs LA (Billingsley) rp Otsuka 4@Bal Street 4 @Bos Julio 3 vs Mil Jenks 3 vs NYY Wickman 4 @ Minn I am leaning to Byrd, Lackey, Zito, Marquis,Olsen and going with Street, Otsuka, and either Julio or Jenks as third closer.

| Based on the fact that I didn't get a reply here until after the deadline to submit the lineup, I kind of took a gamble here. I ended up going 5sp and 3rp which I really haven't done much this year. Trotted out: Marquis Millwood Zito Lackey Olsen Actually was the most nervous about Olsen pitching vs Hou to end the weekend. The Stros seem to be a feast or famine team, so I am rooting for them to crush Florida on Saturday and the fish to come back strong on Sunday. Closers I really went out on a limb. Street Otsuka Julio Bench for Wickman and Jenks I know benching Jenks and using Julio is not a popular choice. I believe that Arizona will have a better shot at 1-2 saves vs Milwaukee then will Chicago vs the Yankees. I expect the Yankees will fare ok for Randy Johnson, so the chance for Jenks to get the save will probably be Saturday with no availability the next day. Really don't think any of the closers get a ton of work on a very short week so this is the reason I am going 5 and 3. Crossing my fingers for Olsen over WRod at the end of the weekend to see if my gamble pays off. Have a great day all!
