During Media Day, you spoke of a few position battles. I’d like to ask you about a few of them, starting with Gavin Dugas and Cade Doughty at second base. How’s that battle shaking out?



Can you talk a little more about the centerfield competition and how Mo Hampton is doing?

Paul Mainieri: Well, like I mentioned to you, if I want to get Dugas and Doughty in the lineup at the same time, one possibility is to put Dugas at rightfield and Cabrera at center. That’s something I may do against left-handed pitching until I think Mo Hampton is ready to be in there.



I guess a couple of players who fit into what you’re saying there are Garza and Milazzo. Are they going to be rotating this weekend?



Is it too early to say who will be counted on in various roles out of the bullpen?

Might want to just sit this one out Lester Earl.

All I’ve gotten from this is that I have absolutely no clue who or where anyone is starting this weekend ...I couldn’t keep up with how many “mights” or “mays” were used by PM. Who knows?
