Grieve
I'm just looking at the Tampa Bay boxscore, and Ben Grieve is batting fifth with a .405 OBA. Ben's power isn't there, so why doesn't Piniella lead off with Grieve? In the past, he hasn't stolen much, but he's been very successful when he has (8 out of 10 last year, 24 out of 29 for his career). You need someone on in front of Baldelli, and Crawford isn't getting it done.
