Oakland A's vs. Tampa Rays lineup discussion


With Parrino newly added to the lineup, this new look is not too different then the one I proposed on athleticsnation.com
mine would look like this:

CF BURNS
2B SOGARD
LF SEMIEN
VOGT
RF REDDICK
1B MUNCY
DH BUTLER
3B LAWRIE
SS PARRINO

Sogard to the 2 slot might give him more fastballs to look at and Vogt to the 4 slot would help bring across some of those runners. I would give up the Semien experiment at SS and move him to LF, keeping his bat at the top of the lineup for the beef right now: Reddick, Vogt and Muncy.  Also would keep Butler in to see if he heats up, but drop his slot down to the 7 hole until then. Parrino for defensive purposes.
