When Ichiro is back, I'd drop Snider or Griff. You've got a ton of OF so don't really need both of them. If either starts to hit, you could always grab him later.

Start the hot batter at Util. Can't go wrong with Ellsbury (unless he's slumping). If Thome is knocking them out of the park, start him.

I'm just repeating what others are telling you. I'd drop Griffey. And I'd move Thome to the bench. Though if it's H2H, you have the luxury of benching speed and AVG for power if you need it.
