Thoughts on Tomorrow's Lineup

In case you haven't seen it yet, the Twins have posted their lineup for Game 1 tomorrow on their website. There is only one minor surprise, which isn't that surprising when you consider that the Twins are facing Barry Zito:

1.) Luis Castillo - 2B
2.) Nick Punto - 3B
3.) Joe Mauer - C
4.) Michael Cuddyer - RF
5.) Justin Morneau - 1B
6.) Torii Hunter - CF
7.) Rondell White - LF
8.) Phil Nevin - DH
9.) Jason Bartlett - SS

The minor surprise is, of course, that both Rondell White and Phil Nevin are in the lineup. But again, Zito is starting for the A's and is one of the best lefty's in the league. The Twins obviously are more comfortable with a couple of veteran right-handers in the lineup. There's not much to talk about with this lineup beyond that; it looks likes runs to me!
