I'm not sure about the #3 and #4 spots. I know that's where they liked to put em last year because of protection and all that. But the lineup right there to me is pretty ideal. Could probably swap Boni and JP.

Yeah I'd agree with this.
Odds are the top 6 will be something very similar to that if not that exactly IMO. I could see Lawrie and Rasmus swapping around potentially. Also the 7/8/9 spots are gonna be a toss-up...It wouldn't surprise me to see maybe the DH hit in the 7th spot and the catcher hit in the 8th spot (whether it be JPA or Buck, for power)....and then rounding the lineup off with a guy like Bonifacio who can maybe get on base and cause some havoc on the basepaths to turn the lineup over.
