Opening Day lineup preview?
UPDATE — One late change. Macha is breaking his own rule and using the designated hitter in a National League ballpark. Jody Gerut will fill that role, batting ninth.
For the first time, manager Ken Macha posted a lineup on Friday that could be a preview of Opening Day. Gregg Zaun is back from a quadriceps issue, and Corey Hart will continue to look for ways out of his spring slump.
We’ll see whether Hart or Jim Edmonds is in right field come Monday. That’s probably the biggest question mark facing the Brewers as they tune up for the opener.

What does Adam Stern need to do to make the team. Jim Edmonds is years older and hasn’t hit a lick in the spring. Stern is batting well over .400. Why have spring training at all?
