Tonight's lineups- Bring on Nomar, Kent, and Ozuna!
Just kidding. Everything, save the starting pitcher of course, is just as it was in Wednesday's Game 1 triumph for LA. For the little bears, Kosuke Fukodome is still in the lineup, but he'll bat eighth instead of second. Kind of a no-brainer for Lou Piniella, if he's going to keep Fukodome on the field. Ryan Theriot moves to the two slot, and Mark DeRosa is bumped to fifth.
Remember, the Game 2 Live Chat/Blog kicks off around six. AK will likely have whatever other news there is left to report from Wrigley. He's good like that.

For Pete's sake, BK! Please don't ever try the kind of Tom Foolerey with the blog headline again! When I read that headline, my coworkers in the office probably became very scared when I yelled out "OZUNA?!? WTF?!?"
But then I think I was able to save face when I quickly followed up my outburst by saying, "They switched from the Swingline to the OZUNA stapler, but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn't bind up as much, and I kept the staples for the Swingline stapler and it's not okay because if they take my stapler then I'll, I'll, I'll set the building on fire... "
Embarassing Office moment - averted!

Dodger BB must have a fascinating job, that so much can seem to hinge on a stapler.
Lucky for the Dodgers, their bench has depth (Maddux a closer?,, so they can draw from amongst both the starters and the backups for all kinds of surprises, aka resources.
So, staple on without fear, to those that must--
Go Blue!

BK, You got me with that headline also - it had just enough believability combined with the fact that we all know that Joe never seemed to settle on a line-up (except during the 8 game win streak when he was literally scared to change anything) Even now, they are trying a line-up they never used all season.
Let's hope Bills doesn't suffer from too much rest now - he actually seemed to pitch best when his routine was set.
