Almost every thread these days contains a suggested/proposed lineup for 2010, usually including a player the Sox don't have!  Not that there's anything wrong with fantasy lineups, but if you/we're going to do it at least know this:

The difference between a maximally optimized lineup and the kind we can expect from Ozzie (or many other managers) MAY result in a ONE game difference over the year.  Under normal circumstances it don't mean a hill of beans.  But in a division that's gone 163 for 2 years in a row, optimization may play a role.

Finally, there's been a BIG emphasis on the #3 hitter in many of the posts here.  Is it Q?  Should Beckham move there?  Maybe Che?  To give you a clue, I'll post this from the following link.  Go read the rest of the article to see 1-9 in detail:

The Third Spot

The old-school book says to put your best high-average hitter here.  The lead-off hitter should already be in scoring position and a hit drives him in.  Wham, bam, thank you ma'am.

The Book says the #3 hitter comes to the plate with, on average, fewer runners on base than the #4 or #5 hitters.  So why focus on putting a guy who can knock in runs in the #3 spot, when the two spots after him can benefit from it more?  Surprisingly, because he comes to bat so often with two outs and no runners on base, the #3 hitter isn't nearly as important as we think.  This is a spot to fill after more important spots are taken care of.
