How would you bat this crew? Dunn is home field.

C Dickey
1B Cash/Burns
2B Gehringer
SS Ripken
3B Mathews
LF Buford
CF Speaker
RF Ennis

The only slot I'm convinced of is Buford at leadoff. The rest I can't figure out. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! -- Zippy

Taking advantage of the high OBP for the 1st 3 leads into the thumpers who can drive them in . I personally would leadoff Gehringer and hit Buford 8th . That's just me though .
