Well, as long as Aurilia is cleaning up, all is right in the world today.
That is one ugly 4 and 5 hitting tandem.
Go Gators!
Why o why does JN insist on batting RA in the cleanup spot? Has any reporter ever asked him that question? I would love to hear his answer.

Yea Hatteberg sucks ass, a 390 OBP isn't worth crap.Originally Posted by KronoRed
I need to see the Lineup splits for Richie.Originally Posted by TeamBoone
Lancaster would probably be the only one inclined to ask that question. McCoy, Fay, Brennaman, et. al seem to have a fetish for Aurilia. It only centers around his "veteran precense" "Knows How To Play The Game" - yadda yadda yadda....he's hitting fourth.
Some people play baseball. Baseball plays Jay Bruce.
4 & 5 is a joke. Three is a humorous pun, bordering on joke. Poor Phillips.
He's a professional hitter; He can hit with RISP; He's been on winning ball clubs; He's a clutch hitter....Originally Posted by TeamBoone
It would probably be one of those...or a variation of several.

Hitting 5th I look at slugging percentageOriginally Posted by TC81190
Go Gators!
Hatteberg is not a 5th hitter!
Gotcha. Thought that was a dig at Hatteberg.Originally Posted by KronoRed
Switch Dunn and Hatteberg.
Actually, as much sense as it doesn't make, the Reds do have a better record with Rich batting 4th than anybody else batting 4th.
