I'm in favor of Heisey taking over. He's a better overall player, at this particular time. That said, Bruce to center and it gets Frazier in the lineup. I say get 'er done.
I look for Stubbs to get plenty of playing time in Houston this weekend. With the cavernous CF they have in the Juice Box, you need someone who can cover a lot of ground.

When the Reds get back home, you could see more of Heisey in CF, and possibly also see the Grand Experiment of Bruce in CF and Frazier going to the OF in one or two games.
