I believe it will look something like this:
1: Coco Crisp, CF
2: Mark Loretta, 2B
3: David Ortiz, DH
4: Manny Ramirez, LF
5: Trot Nixon / Wily Mo Pena, RF
6: Jason Varitek, C
7: Kevin Youkilis, 1B
8: Mike Lowell, 3B
9: Alex Gonzalez, SS
I really like the look of this lineup. Coco and Loretta could make one of the best combos at the top of any lineup in the American League. Ortiz and Manny, of course, will be who they have been forever. Nixon and Pena will add a nice power threat behind Manny, and Tek will hopefully pick up the average a little bit. Youkilis will be a "second leadoff" behind Varitek, with Lowell cleaning up in the back of the lineup. Gonzo is the nine guy with the bunt and steal threat.
