I just got home to see that lineup. Every one who paid their hard earned money to get in tonight ought to demand a refund, or at least a reduction to AAA ticket prices. Geesh, I don't care if Sandy Koufax is out there, Luis Lopez, Jason Romano, Javier Valentin, and William Bergolla should never be in the same lineup in anything above a B game in Spring Training.
That isn't even acceptable for the second game of a DH

On the bright side, this should be Perez's last inning. He missed two starts, only threw 96 his last start, and is over that 96 pitches now.
L. Lopez and Romano vs. the Bullpen!! gO rEDz!!!

I haven't been able to follow things the past few days - is Junior hurt? I saw Casey jammed his shoulder, but what is up with Griffey?
:raiseshand: at work...please and thank you.
I think they are just giving Griffey a night off. He's been playing a lot lately.
Apparently, he needed a rest because of his slump. Of course he was on base five times yesterday which would indicate to me that his slump was over, but what do I know.

Randa and Casey are slightly hurt. Griffey is getting the day off against Perez.
He's just getting a blow tonight with a lefty on the mound.
Sorry, I know it's juvenile but I crack up everytime Miley says that.

Lawton doubles to leadoff the 6th.
I'll probably edit each atbat in an inning into one post to avoid padding my post count.

Go Gators!
Top of the 6th

There goes the run of good pitching (9 runs given up last 3 games).
Year after year we used to at least have a good bullpen. We have nothing now.
We need to average 6 runs a game from our offense to be winners. But with half our starting lineup belonging in AAA and a manager that struggles with roster moves, that's not going to happen.
We need a miracle!!!
They do happen.
Let us hope the Will is in favor of the REDS.

Let's just cool a guy off when he's hot.
Miley would blow a sure thing on a date with a porn star.
