    Jun 3 Game Thread - or Can Dunn match Milton HR for HR?

    Today
    CIN: Eric Milton
    at
    COL: Jeff Francis
    9:05 p.m.
    TV: FSN
    Radio: 700 AM


    Matchup
    Slumps don't play favorites. And no rookie is immune. Jeff Francis (4-2, 5.24 ERA) is suffering through this season's first mini-skid, tagged for 11 runs in his past 10 1/3 innings. Frustration ruled after his last start, when Francis admitted he didn't have one pitch he could trust. Eric Milton (3-6, 7.05) doesn't mesh real well with Denver. He's not just a flyball pitcher, he's a long flyball pitcher, surrendering 20 home runs in 60 innings.
    Will trade this space for a #1 starter.

    For what it's worth, Francis' ERA at Coors is just 2.92. He's 3-0 in four starts at Coors.

    His road ERA is 7.03.

    How do the Reds have 24 Americans and 9 foreigners on a 24 man roster?
    My dad got to enjoy 3 Reds World Championships by the time he was my age. So far, I've only gotten to enjoy one. Step it up Redlegs!

    They use very racist methods in counting a foreigner?

    All I know is I anxious, yet scared to go home tonight and watch the TiVo of tonights game. Should be interesting. For those sports betters out there, I'd probably play the over, as long as it is no higher than 20

    Isn't that just a hoot? That's like being a .200 hitter anywhere else. Yea, he's tore it up there

    And I think I'm probably approaching the "excessive player criticism" rule with Aurilia. Can I neg myself?

    I completely agree..... .286 at Coors is like about no more than .230/.240 anywhere else. And big deal that he has 10 HR's there......how many times did he play there when he was with the Giants?

    I think the article in the enquirer was discussing his alleged demands and then stated how this weekend he might start beacuse of those numbers.

    You have to be out of your mind to sit Dunn for Romano.
