Indoor Home Run Pool Friday

hrpool2Those of you who participated in the great lineup discussion from earlier today, thanks a lot. Now, you can not only enter the home run pool, but also see how you fared in your lineup predictions. Quick word: Anybody who had Julio Borbon playing, well, we’ve got these nice parting gifts for you.

Here’s what the Rangers are firing out there against LHP Scott Kazmir: 2B Ian Kinsler, 3B Michael Young, LF Marlon Byrd, DH Andruw Jones, CF Josh Hamilton, RF Nelson Cruz, 1B Hank Blalock, C Taylor Teagarden, SS Elvis Andrus and pitching for the Rangers … RHP Dustin Nippert.

Good luck with your picks. I’ll play along tonight and go with Michael Young, 4th inning, one out, one on, 2-0 pitch, 389 feet.
