Damn, that's a pretty solid lineup. And creatively filled out by Jim Leyland moving Alex Avila to third base from his usual catching position to get Victor Martinez in there. So I'm thinking, let's see how of a defense for offense trade they're doing here. Let's test out Avila with a couple bunt attempts and see if Martinez can be run on a bit.
By the way, did Leyland ever do anything creative in his one year at Colorado before riding off into the sunset smoking a pack of cigarettes?
