I guess Narron didn't like having a .400 OBP in the 2 hole against righties. Casey's is hot right now, but still should not be in the 3 hole.
The two worst hitters starting are batting 2nd and 3rd in the lineup ... again.
Figures :barf:
Anybody have the stats on how Lopez does when batting in front of Aurillia v. batting in front of Dunn? It seems to me, anecodotally, that he has a lot of 0-fers and 1-fers with Dunn behind him, but a lot of 2 and 3 hit games with Rich behind him.
That, if true, both confuses and irks me.
FWIW Aurilia and Casey OWN Tomko and Dunn is hitting .182 off him.
Dunn does have 2 HR's against Tomko in 11 AB's though.
Names out of a hat every night.
*shrug*
I knew Dunn in the 2 spot was fleeting ;)
It looks to me that Narron *may* be looking at batter vs. pitcher stats in his lineup construction.
I guess Dunn's .538 OBP in the two slot isn't good enough.
Those two RBIs last night didn't help either. :confused:Quote:

Gonna watch the game on TiVo after work tonight, so, this is my only check-in. Go Reds, and if what Caveat Emperor says is right....how odd, eh?
It does seem that Narron is looking at pitching/hitting matchups...really, he could do worse, IMO.
DDN didnt show itQuote:
