I think Arcia will have a very good year at the plate. That's the only reason I would consider hitting him 9th. If you go: Villar Catcher Pitcher Arcia Then you can let Villar run all he wants to try to make something happen with catcher pitcher up and you have Arcia hitting in front of the top of the order. Very solid lineup no matter how you put it together though. This game seems soooo far away yet.
Happ hits the first pitch of the season out. Urena follows up by hitting 3 Cub batters in the inning. I guess you could say he hasn't quite found his control yet. Don't think it's opening day nerves... there are only about 15,000 people in the stadium.
Guessing we will see Cain, Yellich, Braun, Shaw, Santana, Pina, Villar, Arcia, Anderson? Mets have pitcher 8th today. Would not hate it if Brewers did go that route.
