Lineup Card -- Rockies @ Angels

Rockies Lineup (39-34)

• 2B Herrera
• RF Spilborghs
• CF Gonzalez
• DH Giambi
• 1B  Mora
• C   Olivo
• 3B Stewart
• LF Smith
• SS Barmes

Aaron Cook on the mound.  Jim Tracy will cross his fingers that he can get another at least seven innings out of Cookie.  That seems almost impossible on the road.

The latest on Brad Hawpe is the same as the earliest report.  Bruised Ribs.  Day-to-Day.  Not likely to be available for any kind of duty tonight.  

Angels Lineup (41-35)

• 2B Kendrick
• 3B Frandsen
• DH Abreu
• CF Hunter
• LF Matsui
• RF Rivera
• 1B Napoli
• SS Aybar
• C   Wilson

Southpaw Joe Saunders on the hill for the Angels.  He used to be real good.  Now he's just kinda bleh.  The Rockies haven't fared real well against bleh this season.
