Rafael Furcal leading off

Any owners of Furcal have to be thrilled with Torre's decision to place him atop the Dodger lineup. If he stays healthy, the upside here is obvious.

I always thought that he would bat lead off...

I had him with more value at the Number 2 slot.

rbi down, sb up. i don't believe anyone drafted furcal for his rbi.

of more concern would be kemp's #'s if he is the #7 hitter vs RHP...

You are probably correct though, a few more bags to steal now, and LOTS of runs with Eithier knocking the cover off the ball!!!!
