Ace left-hander Cliff Lee will be followed in the Texas Rangers' rotation at the World Series by C.J. Wilson, Colby Lewis and then, most likely, Tommy Hunter.

Manager Ron Washington had already confirmed Lee as the Game 1 starter, but didn't give his expected order until arriving Monday in San Francisco.

He expects Hunter to remain the fourth starter.

That gives the Rangers left-handed starters in Games 1 and 2.

Washington also says slugger Vladimir Guerrero, the Rangers' normal designated hitter, will start in right field for Game 1 on Wednesday in San Francisco.

That means Nelson Cruz moves to left field with David Murphy and Jeff Francoeur available off the bench.
