I'd take Ibanez in that lineup. Maybe counter and offer Lindstrom.

I think you can do better. Rauch is doing really well and Ibanez is struggling. It's not really selling high on Ibanez. I'm not high on Kubel, so I would try to get more of an impact hitter than Ibanez/Kubel.

Help with mine? viewtopic.php?t=409122
