Furcal
Giles (Orr when Giles is hurt)
C. Jones
A. Jones
Estrada
Laroche
Mondesi
Jordan
Pitcher
Looking at this lineup..if Mondesi, Giles, and Jordan all have 25 HR years, and the Jones brothers have 40 HR years, Estrada, Furcal, and Laroche each with 15, think about the dominance. I know right now we are struggling(although I think Jordan may have just settled that). Once Andruw, Mondesi, Furcal, and Giles get back on track, WATCH OUT :eek:

isn't that really wishful thinking? i mean, brian jordan will not have 25 HR's. he hasn't hit 25 since 2001, and even then he was right at 25. mondesi might, but i doubt it. he ahsn't hit 25 since 2002. andruw has never hit 40, what makes you think he will this year. and chipper has hit 40, once. as for the rest, what you say is possible.

yes...wishful thinking. But possible. They say this is Andruw's year, and Chipper is finally healthy and back where he needs to be. As for Mondesi and Jordan..I don't know. I think Mondesi will..Brian Jordan could. He's back at home, and still has the ability to hit 25. Just needs to stay healthy.

"they say" this is andruw's year. no offense, but haven't you heard that line before? every team has guys like that. as for jordan, well, he's pretty much never been healthy, and mondesi is a dog.

You're more optimistic than I am. I see this offense being adaquete. Not spectacular, but good enough. We won't have five or six guys hit 25 homers like in '03. More like 2 or 3, which is fine for this staff.

Yes...I see it half-full. But the potential is there, no doubt.
