Projected Orioles lineup

[realmofotalk]

Outside of Brian Roberts and Nick Markakis, the following lineup resembles a DiamondDave trade block.

Player	Pos
Brian Roberts	2b
Melvin Mora	3b
Nick Markakis	RF
Aubrey Huff	1b
Kevin Millar	DH
Ramon Hernandez	C
Jay Payton	CF
Luke Scott	LF
Luis Hernandez	SS

Stopped loving Melvin Mora, eh?

And sadly the Giants lineup is worse than this one.

Brian Roberts might be headed to the Cubs, so it would be an injustice if Nick Markakis doesn't lead the league in intentional walks.

If the Orioles add Ronny Cedeno at 2B, who leads off? Payton?

Why is Luke Scott in the starting lineup? Payton too?

Here's Yahoo's version of the projected lineup:

Player	Pos
Brian Roberts	2b
Melvin Mora	3b
Nick Markakis	RF
Aubrey Huff	DH
Ramon Hernandez	C
Luke Scott	LF
Kevin Millar	1b
Adam Jones	CF
Luis Hernandez	SS

The only notable change is that Adam Jones wasn't acquired by the O's when I posted my lineup.

Mora has no business being in the 2 hole... his productive years are past him... it is not like this team is looking for wins now... IMHO Jones needs as many AB's as we can give him... needs to be higher up in the order than 8th
