Waiting for it to get confirmed but we'll see if he's in the Bats lineup tonight.

I figured they'd call up Francisco if Heisey goes on the DL, but I'm excited to see Sappelt if its true.
They are hinting at a roster move, but I don't think Sappelt is on the 40 man, is he?
Not according to the Reds website.
17 for his last 41 is a nice clip. I haven't seen Sappelt since he was a Dragon and he wasn't much of a prospect then so I paid very little attention to him. It Looks like his power numbers are down, maybe the injury? What type of big league hitter might he become? Any current hitters he reminds you of?
Hopefully he can get a chance to play a little and even lead off.
I wonder what his role will be. I would imagine that he would see time in LF and CF..?
Cozart should be back soon too... I would like to see Sap get a chance and maybe Crusty could roll out...
Sappelt CF
Cozart SS
Votto 1B
Alonso LF
Phillips 2B
Bruce RF
Mesa--I mean...Hernandez C
Frazier 3B
If Sappelt doesn't lead off, then Dusty will have solidified himself as an idiot.
Got called up primarily because of his performance during spring training. That's the way the Cowboy made it sound.
