Finally! After a long wait, I finally had a no hitter thrown by Clemens. Here is the link:

BTW...Frank Thomas just got back from an injury and went down for 15 games in his first game back. :( Does my batting order look ok?

Gotta live with the injury bug when you use those guys...
Izturis is DEFINATELY not a lead-off hitter.
But, you really don't have a true one. I would use Castillo vs. LH's and go with Overbay vs. RH's, in your case.

Yep, that's true. Gotta live with the injury bug.
I don't know, I used Izturis at leadoff for his speed and his OBP was like .370 or something I think. I thought I'd go with speed at the top and bottom.

Yeah I have Castillo lead off against lefties.

Better with Castillo, but not the best.
Getting Izturis to a .370 OBP isn't going to happen alot. You got some good rolls I'm afraid.

Oh no...I looked and he's at like .270. But I could have sworn his stats from last year were .370. But I looked now and it was Castillo that I was thinking of. Izturis was only at .330. I think I just had him leadoff for his speed which is irrelevant if he don't get on. No wonder my offence had been struggling.
