Your projected starting lineup in year 2013?

[nick]

Thought this might be a cool post... I've been building this currect Giants team for a long time it seems like, and had tons of years of mediocrity from the Bonds-age and didn't really know how to achieve what I was looking for, most of the time trying to catch lightening in a bottle with a lot of FA signings.

This year, I decided to make some signings, but mainly 1-year stopgap contracts so I wouldn't be screwing up the future, while keeping my core intact and calling a good majority of them up or planning to at some point in the year. While they've exceeded expectations, and continue to, the real fun should begin in about 1 or 2 years so I figured I'd make a post where we can discuss our future line-ups barring free agent signings and retirements of course.


PROJECTED 2013 TEAM:

LINEUP:

1) R Michael Mathers CF
2) L Jonathan Priest LF
3) R Adam Jones SS
4) L Dennis Meeks 1B (teach)
5) R Andrew Andersen C
6) S Bryan Moser 3B
7) R Salomon Henriquez RF
8) R Rai Delapena 2B

BENCH:
C Michael Barrett
OF Eric Obando
OF Thad Vital
1B Daric Barton
SS Pedro Lopez


STARTING ROTATION:
1) R Matt Cain
2) L Noah Lowry
3) R Bobby Bradley
4) L Brad Halsey
5) R Basilio Baez

BULLPEN:

Mopup Reliever
1) R Justin Duchscherer
2)

Middle Reliever
1) R Rich Fischer
2) L Seymour Seymour
3) R Lorenzo Romero
4) L Jonathan Rouwenhorst

Setup Reliever
1) R Merkin Valdez
2)

Closer
1) R Jeff Allison




A lot could change, and a lot of the pitching is just guessing for fun... but I'm bored. The relief will most definitely be filled with free agent signings, and the rotation sans Cain & Lowry will be whoever's performing and rated best come then. This is just predictions. Hopefully Allison will have good enough stamina to start by then, but if not, he'll continue to be a beast ass closer.

Since Delapena isn't in the future, trade him to me
