Aurilla really must be loving all this playing time.

Looking at the HR totals there, it isn't inconceivable that Casey could hit two more dingers and Encarnacion 5 more before the season is up. That would make 10 Reds with at least 10 home runs (LaRue and Pena are already there) for the first time since 1999.

That would be cool.

Randa should count he did hit 13 as a Red

Other interesting things

Austin Kearns is 4 RBI away from passing Casey

To make things even more pathetic, Kearns is only 4 away while batting a putrid .241.

Man, 8 million/yr too. Yikes.

Aurilla has more RBI than Casey.

Dunn's power has gone away here in August. His OBP is over .400 for the month, but his SLG is under .450 for the month.

.262/.407/.431

At least BF should be happy..

You might hate him, you might like him....

But boys, Aurilla has done what he came here to do...... Puts the bat on the ball, and puts it in play..... I don't like he is getting more PT over our younger IF, but atleast he is having a productive year.

..

And that, my friends, is yet another reason why it is important for batters to take their walks -- average slumps, power slumps, but OBP just keeps marching right along, grinding down pitchers and turning into runs scored.

He SHOULD be playing tonight and tomorrow to showcase him to Jimbo. I just don't understand why Jim B isn't realy after him.
