Since the alumni game lineup is usually the one they trot out on opening day, get your guesses in before the game Saturday,

CF Dario Gomez
1B Kayfus
3B Yoyo
LF Farrow
RF Levenson
SS Pitelli
DH Carrier (Tough one. Kaden Martin and Jacoby have looked good and Carrier still can't hit anything off-speed)
2B Gonzalez (I'd prefer the more entertaining Cyr but he will push Dorian and may well take over at some point)
C Scanlon (JD Jones has been the better catcher but Gino goes with the "experienced" backstop

Are we expecting walters back in the Pen? Haven't followed much in the off-season but thought he was getting a shot at starting?

I can see an argument for making Chestnutt the primary midweek starter, and leaving Rafe in the bullpen. Crowther and Caba are injured leaving unproven Scinta and Walsh as the only healthy LHP besides Rafe on the roster. You are OTOH putting a lot of eggs in the Rosario has finally figured it out basket if you do this.

Not a unique one here but I swap Levenson and Farrow with the thought that we’re getting at least one on in the first frame, make them pitch to Levenson with runners on.

For the record it’d be my preference to see Jones as the day one backstop but I think Gino will go will Perez. Personally, I don’t think Scanlon adds a **** of a lot; esp. as a lefty bat in this iteration of the lineup. Looking forward to seeing the progression of Cyr and what Martin, Long and Garcia do in early non-conference opportunities.

You missed the deadline! That’s basically the alumni game lineup which is what they usually go with opening night.
