Royals Starting Lineup

Here's the Royals' lineup for their opener against the Tigers today:

DeJesus
Grudzielanek
Gordon
Guillen
Butler
Teahen
Gload
Buck
Pena

This is very good news for two of my guys: Gordon and Butler. There had been a lot of talk about hitting them sixth and seventh, which was very confusing to me. Gordon gains some value in the #3 spot as his RBI and runs numbers should benefit. Of course, he still has to hit and prove that he belongs there.
