- Its worse than that. Dusty Baker not only announced he would leadoff McGee
- and hit Bonds 5th, he announced that he would like to reinsert Matt Williams
- into the cleanup spot(where he has proven to be terrible, Matt just can't
- hit there for whatever reasons he can't). He then intimated that he is
- also leaning towards reinserting Billy Swift in the starting rotation because
- he thinks he has a good enough bullpen with Rod Beck, but needs more starters.
-
- Any predictions on how many starts Swift gets before his shoulder starts to
- hurt?
-
- How long before Williams asks out of the cleanup spot?
