If you had a lineup of 9 Jack Custs who hit(Cust career average) .239 AVG, .382 OBP, and .475 SLG, then your team would score 6.12 runs per game-totalling to 991runs a season.The 08 rangers lead the majors in runs score with 901.

There’s a chance that Brett Anderson and Gio Gonzalez will swap starts, with Gonzalez going tomorrow and Anderson on Monday, but manager Bob Geren said he doesn’t believe that will happen. He should know after both are done throwing today; Anderson has a minor problem with his index finger.
