I don't think very many people have accused Tony LaRussa of not being creative and open to new ideas. I mean, we've got the pitcher batting eighth, redefining the way relief pitchers are used, stuff like that. And now, he's showing that he's not bound by convention with his leadoff man. Tonight's lineup, via Bernie:
Ludwick 9
Ankiel 8
Pujols 3
Duncan 9
Glaus 5
Molina 2
Kennedy 4
Wellemeyer 1
Izturis 6
Now, when I think of Ryan Ludwick, "leadoff" is not exactly what comes to mind. Like I pointed out in my main post today, he's got good numbers against Arroyo so I figured he'd be in the lineup, but wow. I'd almost have thought TLR would have sat Ankiel and let Skip lead off, but Rick has shown a little life lately with a hit on Saturday and two walks yesterday.
And apparently Glaus is going to wear some special glasses tonight. Hopefully they'll work, but if not, don't be surprised if he comes out after an at-bat or two and Ryan replaces him.
Just when you think you've got it all figured out, surprises can still come your way. Let's see if this revamped lineup can get some runs on the board early.
