Johnny damon is almost officially an Indian. What happens to the lineup now? He bats 7 for Duncan? Or do they move Asdrubal to the 3 and Choo to the 6, slotting Damon in the 2 hole?
Good question. I think they'll eventually try both. With Choo off to a slow start, moving him down may be more likely. On the other hand, Damon missed Spring Training and might be better off lower in the order to start.
