With veteran additions such as outfielders Howie Kendrick and Michael Saunders, Phillies manager Pete Mackanin is looking to do less lineup juggling this season.
During a news conference Sunday at Citizens Bank Park before the Phillies departed for Cincinnati and the opener Monday against the Reds, Mackanin gave his lineup, and it didn't have any real surprises.
Second baseman Cesar Hernandez will lead off, followed by leftfielder Kendrick, centerfielder Odubel Herrera, and third baseman Maikel Franco, batting cleanup.
Rightfielder Saunders will hit fifth, followed by first baseman Tommy Joseph, catcher Cameron Rupp, and shortstop Freddy Galvis.
