    Keep it going Bucs.

    Am the only one who think Hurdle is an idiot for placing Jones 7th? I would much rather see him batting at the 3rd spot, 4th spot, or even the 6th spot which Doumit is batting in and he can’t hit the darn ball with an airplane wing.

    Dave, You would rather have Jones bat 3rd instead of McCutchen? Him batting 7th just shows the relative strength on the lineup for a change.
