Call me crazy...but I have way more faith with Pena hitting this year than I do with Tek. I'd slip Pena into the 5 slot...
Trot
Loretta
Ortiz
Manny
Pena
Lowell
Gonzalez
Varitek
{Pitcher's Spot}
I know dropping Tek so far down and below Gonzo is going to throw some people into a tizzy...but Tek could add some pop to the bottom if by some chance Gonzo can get on base. The 3-4-5 of Ortiz, Manny, and Pena is TERRIFYING, the only think I don't like about it is stacking Pena and Manny right next to each other...in the late innings one righty reliever could be brought into face both of them...it'd be cool to see Manny, Ortiz, Pena because that would place a load of stress on managers to not have a righty/lefty or lefty/righty matchup in the late innings. Who knows? Why not shake something up?
