What would it look like?

I would go something like this, with lineups being Games 1-3 and not accounting for pitching-handedness:

1. Diaz, 3B
2. Austin, CF
3. Hewett, LF/RF
4. Vastine, SS
5. Maldonado, 1B
6. Davis, 2B
7. Bulger, LF/C
8. Espinal, C
9. Holcomb/LaNeve/Humphrey, RF/LF/DH

The corner outfielders are kind of a merry-go-round. Holcomb needs to get a turn at some point. I think maybe Espinal catches the Friday and Sunday games and Bulger spells in between.

I know having Bulger in the lineup isn't a popular idea but he's hitting .300/.417/.450 so the bat has been fine, even if mis-cast.

Thoughts?
