Hi there!  Miss me?  Got a little busy there for a while, but now seems like a good time to pick up with the birthday boys, and we are at February 9.  A look at the list shows 11 guys with 10 or more years of major league experience, and ten more with at least five years.  Let's see if the quantity translates into quality.

Lineup:
1 Charley Bassett, 2B
2 John Kruk, LF
3 Vlad Guerrero, CF
4 Vic Wertz, RF
5 Heinie Zimmerman, 3B
6 Pete O'Brien, 1B
7 Specs Topcorer, SS
8 Dioner Navarro, C

Bench:  Todd Pratt, C; Clete Boyer, IF; Mookie Wilson, OF; Aki Iwamura, IF; Buzz Boyle, OF.

Rotation:
1 Tex Hughson
2 Jim Nash
3 Roy Mahaffey
4 Eddie Solomon

Bullpen: Erv Palica, John Urrea, Pat Underwood, Doug Linton.

Pitching is a little thin, but the lineup is pretty good.  Being able to go Kruk-Guerrero-Wertz there is pretty solid.  Outfield is shaky defensively.  Infield defense should be solid.
