1) Kotsay CF 2) Johnson 2B 3) Chipper 3B 4) Teixeira 1B 5) McCann C 6) Francouer RF 7) Diaz LF 8) Escobar SS 9) Smoltz P I bet at some point they move Escobar to the leadoff spot. Bobby could do what LaRussa used to do... bat the pitcher 8th and have Escobar bat 9th which esentially is 2 leadoff men occasionally back to back.
IMO Esco should lead off. He was great for us there last season. I'm actually a bit puzzled as to why Kotsay's there.

I forgot reading about that when I saw the trade happen.
