American League West
Los Angeles Angels SD, @SF, LAD, COL, ARI
Juan Rivera: Even though Vladimir Guerrero is the team’s designated hitter, expect to see him play in the outfield over Rivera. Rivera will most likely be sued as a situational hitter.
Texas Rangers LAD, HOU, SF, @ARI, SD
Chris Davis/ Hank Blalock: Like Thome and Konerko, these two players will be splitting time at National League ballparks. Blalock is the better choice as Davis has been in his hitting slump as season.
Oakland Athletics @SF, @LAD, @SD, SF, COL
Jason Giambi: Giambi has played minimum amounts at first base this season, but should see some in the upcoming weeks. With the Athletics hitting the ball poorly as of late, this will force the Athletics to play Giambi, even without the designated hitter.
Seattle Mariners @COL, @SD, ARI, SD, @LAD
Mike Sweeney/Ken Griffey: Both players have been splitting the designated hitting role this season, and will most likely both not play at all in National League ballparks. If either one due, it will be due to matchups and situational purposes.
