Standard Jim Leyland usually plays B/R vs rightys, But I/S had great games yesterday. Who plays?
 
Looks like Kelly and Wilson and Santiago will be playing tonight.. as Jim gets his lefty's in the line-up verses A.J.
 
How can you sit magglio when he is playing so well? oh well, go tigers.

I guess lefty righty match-up up and it helps that Kelly is pretty hot himself.. But I understand what you are saying...

Yes, lineup already up,
Santiago 2B in the 2 spot,
Kelly RF batting 6th,
Avila batting 8th again,
Betemit 3B batting 9th.
 
I'd start Magglio regardless, how do you think he had all those great years and a batting title, by sitting against righties. and you can't beat experience.

I don't think there is much of a difference between Maggs and Kelly except Kelly is much better defensively. With Porecllo on the mound it is very likely that Kelly will make a play or two tonight that Maggs can't make. I have no problem with Kelly getting the start.

Kelly is not as easy to double off as Maggs is either.

I'm actually hoping to see Ordonez at some point as a PH maybe, cause it just seems he feeds off the postseason.
