Lineup Card: Rockies vs Giants

Rockies Lineup (42-37)

• CF Fowler
• 2B Herrera
• RF Gonzalez
• 1B Giambi
• LF Smith
• C   Olivo
• 3B Stewart
• 2B Barmes
• P   Chacin

Hawpe is still in recovery mode from the bruised ribs.  I don't think we'll see a DL stint at this point but less playing time between now and the all-star seems very likely.

Giants Lineup (40-38)

• CF Torres
• 2B Sanchez
• RF Huff
• LF Burrell
• 3B Sandoval
• SS Uribe
• 1B Posey
• C  Whiteside
• P   Lincecum

Torres can carry some ground with his speed but it'll be a chore for him to cut off the gaps with Burrell and Huff joining him.  Hopefully the Rockies can take advantage of that by peppering the gaps and especially attacking Burrell in LF.  He's still not quite sure how to work that glove on his hand.
