This new lineup is interesting. Scutaro leads off. Yes, I know he did that last year, but this year it seems a bit weird. Ells is out, and Varitek should be in there for his performance yesterday.
Astros:
M. Bourn CF
A. Sanchez 2B
H. Pence RF
C. Lee LF
C. Johnson 3B (Ron's son)
B. Wallace 1B
C. Barmes SS
C. Corporan C
B. Norris P
The only standouts are Michael Bourn who is a major stolen base threat and a good outfielder, Hunter Pence who had a long hitting streak in June, and Brett Wallace, who is a great hitter as well as a good first baseman.
