Overcast day at Al Lang

Posted Mar 4, 2008 by Marc Lancaster

Updated Mar 4, 2008 at 11:02 AM

Gray skies and windy here at Al Lang. Sounds like some inclement weather is headed in this afternoon; as always, we’ll have to wait and see how it goes.

On the news and notes front this morning, we talked for a while with Joe Maddon about how impressive it was that Brian Anderson was scheduled to make his first Grapefruit League appearance tomorrow, then were told immediately after that session that the lefty will throw a bullpen instead. He’s down for one inning in Saturday’s game, as is David Price (who will throw batting practice tomorrow). Scott Kazmir continues to progress, working on the much-beloved “sock drill” today. Reid Brignac is slated to play for the first time today, taking over for Jason Bartlett at shortstop.

The lineups:

Rays
Iwamura 2B
Bartlett SS
Pena 1B
Baldelli DH
Floyd RF
Longoria 3B
Rodriguez LF
Riggans C
Weber CF
Jackson P

Also scheduled to pitch: Reyes, Wheeler, Miller, Glover, Dohmann, Birkins, Medlock, Ryu

Twins
Denard Span CF
Nick Punto 2B
Michael Cuddyer RF
Garrett Jones 1B
Mike Redmond C
Mike Lamb 3B
Jason Kubel LF
Howie Clark DH
Adam Everett SS
Boof Bonser P
