If the Orioles go with this lineup, it should  be very interesting to see how we use our bullpen against them.  Personally, I don't think Zito will go more than 5-6 innings because of his usual high pitch counts.  I think we'll see Calero and/or Cruz vs. the middle of their lineup quite a bit (Mora, Tejada, Sosa, Lopez).  Then, Rincon will need to play a big part when the latter end of lineup comes to the plate.

What changes would you make?
