Where's Coste?

I'm not sure whether or not he'll start tomorrow.  I imagine that he won't.  But, I think it would definitely be a step in the right direction for the offense.  With the exception of Ryno and Vic, the middle of our order is looking fairly pathetic this series.  I know sample size is small, and I know Coste hasn't been hitting well lately--but I also know that watching the Phils face CC Sabathia on Tuesday is the last thing that I want to do and we could use any kind of spark we could get.

So far this series:

Utley - 2/12 - 1bb
Howard - 2/8 - 4bb
Burrell - 0/8 - 2bb
Victorino - 4/10 - 1bb
Feliz - 2/12 - 1bb
Ruiz - 1/10 - 1bb

That's a line of:  .183/.286/.300

 

While not so much recently, Coste has also started a significant portion of Blanton's games, so I doubt the communication wouldn't be there.

 

So, my lineup for tomorrow would be:

Rollins, Werth, Utley, Howard, Burrell, Victorino, Coste, Feliz, Blanton

 

Something different, at least.

 

I'm really, really afraid of a game five.
