I personally like Stanfield in the 9 with Curiel leading off, but basing off of scrimmage lineups, I think Jay likes Stanfield in the leadoff spot. The rest of the lineup is kind of a crapshoot. Milwaukee throwing a lefty today so I think Simpson gets the nod over Braun at DH. Brown may bat a little further down based on his history versus lefties.

1. Stanfield - LF
2. Curiel - CF
3. Brown - RF
4. Arrambide - C
5. Yorke - 1B
6. Milam - SS
7. Pearson - DH
8. Caraway - 3B
9. Simpson- 2B

Going against a LHP so thinking Jay might go with matchups at DH and 2B and start the RH hitters.

Seems reasonable

Batting order, though

Curiel
Milam
Brown
Yorke
Arrambide
Simpson
Carraway
Dardar
Stanfield

I think Jay likes having a singles machine batting in the 9th slot. I could also see him slide Millam to the 8th spot.

The power from Brown to Dardar is mind-boggling.

This is honestly closer to the lineup I would go with, I just have a gut feeling Jay goes with Stanfield as a leadoff.

Lefty on the mound, so don't think we see both Dardar and Reeves. Simpson will probably be in one of those spots.

I could see that. I think it will come down to what Jay thinks is best for the team (captain obvious here) and what Stanfield is comfortable with.

Missed the LHP starting pitcher - put Simpson and Pearson in there, take out Dardar and Reaves

Probably about right. Stanfield may go 9th again, but with a LH, may bat higher. Probably why Dardar will get the nod over Reaves.
