      - Oh crap, we left it in the union hands. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 9, 11:02

- pajama jeans ? -- nm - decline Mar 9, 10:57 6
  - Pajama jeans wish they were this awesome. -- nm - Amy Mar 9, 11:00 5

Gardner in the leadoff spot should be a no-brainer. - groiny Mar 9, 10:56 22
- [deleted] 3

    - he probably deserves it more than Tex or Arod. nm -- nm - groiny Mar 9, 11:05
  - probably Granderson ahead of Posada. - groiny Mar 9, 10:58 1
    - I put Granderson behind him becuase Posada still gets a lot of hits...to capitalize on Jeter's assumed recovery...Granderson's more feast or famine. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 9, 11:04
- Yup. Hard to admit this but unless Jeter shows he can hit .320 again, I'd drop him down in the lineup. -- nm - Krusty Mar 9, 10:57
- [deleted] 10
  - If his learning to bunt better goes well then I expect that number to actually rise this season. - Krusty Mar 9, 10:59 8
    - I can't believe how bad the teaching is if a guy of his skillset is just now learning how to bunt. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 9, 11:02 3
      - I am not a fan. - groiny Mar 9, 11:08 2
        
        I'm not a fan of the bunt for many people, but if you're not a threat to hit many homers; but are a threat to create runs with your legs....you better - Will Hunting Mar 9, 11:10 1
        
        I understand your point, but you do not have to "bunt" to leg out infield singles.... - groiny Mar 9, 11:12
    - [deleted] 2

    - Remember that movie where Teri Hatcher always had a shaker of Gin Rickeys? I would do that. -- nm - Amy Mar 9, 10:59 1
