This losing streak is consuming my every thought. The Giants are a half-game back of the Rockies for the Cactus League Championship, and they need to win. Could you imagine how cool it would be to wear a CLC hat with a World Series sweatshirt? You'd be untouchable, man. Simply untouchable.
Split squad today, with the first one on MLB.tv at 3:05 PT. The Reds pitcher is Logan Ondrusek, who was acquired in a trade with the Detroit Red Wings. The Giants lineup:
| vs. Reds | vs. Indians |
| Torres - CF | Fontenot - 2B |
| Sanchez - 2B | Schierholtz - RF |
| Huff - RF | Belt - 1B |
| Posey - C | Rowand - CF |
| Burrell - LF | Ishikawa - LF |
| Sandoval - 3B | Rohlinger - 3B |
| Tejada - SS | Crawford - SS |
| DeRosa - 1B | Whiteside - C |
| Lincecum - SP | Pujols - DH |
The DH is "To Be Announced" right now, so there's still a slight chance that it will be Albert Pujols, and that's what I'm reporting until I hear differently. Also, looking at the lineup reminds me of the old saying: When your cleanup hitter is Aaron Rowand, your cleanup hitter is Aaron Rowand.
