I don't like seeing Jimenez second with the way he's hit lately, especially against Lieber.

Dunn 5th/Kearns 7th= :rolleyes:

Re: 5/12/05 - Reds Vs. Phillies Game Thread
 

I have two problems with that lineup one is why D'Angelo Jimenez playing?? and why is Kearns still batting 7th.

My lineup with these players would be

1 Felipe Lopez, SS
2 Joe Randa, 3B
3 Sean Casey, 1B
4 Ken Griffey Jr., CF
5 Austin Kearns,RF
6 Adam Dunn,LF
7 D'Angelo Jimenez,
8 Javier Valentin, C
9 Ramon Ortiz, P

What do you think?

Re: 5/12/05 - Reds Vs. Phillies Game Thread
 

When Lieber pitched for the Cubbies he owned the Reds - I wonder if that will carry over? The safe bet says Yes, yes it will carry over.

No, Freel....boooooo! DJ sits, Flying Squirrell plays.

Re: 5/12/05 - Reds Vs. Phillies Game Thread
 

Although I'd want Casey lower, with that lineup there aren't so many choices(since I'd have Freel starting over Jimenez). Here's what I'd do with this one though:

1) Felipe Lopez SS
2) Adam Dunn LF
3) Sean Casey 1B
4) Ken Griffey Jr. CF
5) Austin Kearns RF
6) Joe Randa 3B
7) D'Angelo Jimenez 2B
8) Javier Valentin C

Re: 5/12/05 - Reds Vs. Phillies Game Thread
 

Casey is 17 for 33 lifetime against Lieber.
Griffey has never homered at Citizens Bank Park

Re: 5/12/05 - Reds Vs. Phillies Game Thread
 

I don't think Griffey's ever homered against the Phillies before...including at The Vet.

Re: 5/12/05 - Reds Vs. Phillies Game Thread
 

Cincyreds,whos playing at 1st?? JR or Casey. :evil:

Re: 5/12/05 - Reds Vs. Phillies Game Thread
 

Changed, thanks.

Re: 5/12/05 - Reds Vs. Phillies Game Thread
 

Yor welcome major leaguer!! ;)

Lets hope we can catch Lieber on a bad night like we did Peavey for the Padres.If we do then this game could be a slugfest.

Re: 5/12/05 - Reds Vs. Phillies Game Thread
 

Anyone think it will be a break out night for Kearns?

Re: 5/12/05 - Reds Vs. Phillies Game Thread
 

I wonder if Bullwinkle has "grounded" Rocky for his defensive lapses, yesterday?

DanO = Boris

Re: 5/12/05 - Reds Vs. Phillies Game Thread
 

He would have already been in mid season form if Miley would have played him everynight.

Re: 5/12/05 - Reds Vs. Phillies Game Thread
 

He homered against them once in 2001 at the Vet other than that I dont think any other time as a Red
