    Rooker is my boy for this weekend

    And we need him big time. Oregon has arguably the best rotation in America- but they are all lefties and Rooker has been obliterating left-handed pitching.

    We shall see, but Rooker is my guy for this weekend. This would be my lineup for Friday:

    Robson
    Gridley
    Kruger
    Rooker
    Collins
    Lowe
    Alexander
    Marrero
    Brown

    We might play a DH on Saturday if we are lucky. Sunday for a DH is out since Oregon has to fly out.

    Ref?

    Oregon plays Alabama Thursday, so that is unlikely. Weather permitting, we may just play a DH in Saturday- but the weather looks rough for this weekend.

    Just thought this deserved a bump after a 6-11 weekend with two bombs. Carry on.

    Brandon Larson had 40 HR's in '97. Said he was 2nd in the country that year. Cresse lead the nation with 30 HR, 106 RBI and 201 total bases in 2000.
