If this kid tears it up all spring and shows the potential he did in 08' before the wrist injury when he led A ball in home runs, what are his chances of landing the full time DH role? I only mentioned it because Leyland made a little comment about it so it got me to thinking. He's built like that Stanton kid in Florida who sends balls into another atmosphere when he makes contact. I like Raburn as the full time DH personally and it seems this could be the year he puts it together for the whole season. If Strieby made the team it would likely mean Inge gets cut, Raburn plays 2nd, and Delmon gets the everyday LF position he desires. More than likely Strieby will be used as a nice trade chip, but I like all the possibilities with this years line up. 6 potential all stars and boat load of talent fighting for other spots. This could be the most devastating line up in the MLB this year. The Rangers are aided by that ball park and the Yanks are getting old. Put either of them in Comerica for 81 games and they don't look nearly as lethal. I think we scored like 40 runs in a 3 game series in Arlington last year. I can only dream about what we'd do in that park for half a year (sigh)
