Nomar to have more tests
Talked to Stan Conte, who wouldn't say exactly what those tests will be, but suffice to say, Nomar has hit a wall. Meanwhile, he is doing an uncanny impersonation of Wally Pipp because Blake DeWitt has forced his way into the N.L. Rookie of the Year race by batting .327 with four homers and 21 RBI in Nomar's absence. ... No plan yet for Schmidt. It's going to depend on how he recovers. He'll do a bullpen either tomorrow or Tuesday, then probably make another rehab start -- probably at Inland Empire again -- sometime during, just before or just after next weekend.
Here's the lineup, with Andruw Jones batting eighth
DH Pierre
LF Ethier
C Martin
2B Kent
1B Loney
RF Kemp
3B DeWitt
CF Jones
SS Hu
