Tiger Lineup

Billfer at The Detroit Tigers Weblog links to Leyland's lineup for 2006. I have to agree I was surprised to see Guillen batting seventh. But, as Billfer notes:

Detroit projects to have a fairly balanced lineup, without any horrible hitters nor spectacular hitters. This will probably temper most changes in the lineup. In fact, using the optimizer and Lee’s aggregate projections for this group the best lineup would score 5.448 runs while the worst would score 5.213. That isn’t a whole lot of difference. However it is worth noting that in the worst lineup Shelton is hitting 8th and Guillen is 6th.
