I did like Dunn in the 2 spot the other night but I love speed at the top of the order with Phillips and Lopez to make Dunn a fixture there.

Dunn's numbers say he should never be batting lower than 4th....personally I think he should never be below 3rd with the amount of times he reaches base. The fact that Griffey bats ahead of him is ridiculous. If there is one thing Griffey does, it is drive in runs, one thing that Dunn does is get on base, so why no put him in front of Griffey. Dunn will also see better pitches bc they will be less likely to pitch around Dunn knowing Griffey is on deck.

We have an amazing offense that is misused every day.

Dunn should bat third, like everyday. Freel leads off, Dunn 3rd, Jr. 4th. Do with the rest what you wish.

Go Gators!
Dunn is hitting .353/.421/.824-1.245 when he bats 2nd, I'm assuming that's because of Griffey protecting him in the lineup. With that said, here is my lineup for when EE returns.
SS Lopez
2B Phillips
LF Dunn
CF Griffey Jr.
3B Encarnacion
RF Kearns
1B Aurilia/Hatteberg
C Ross/LaRue
Freel still gets a lot of PT when someone is given a day off.
Without EE:
Freel
Lopez
Dunn
Griffey
Kearns
Phillips
Hatteberg/Aurilia
Ross/LaRue
It's so nice seeing most of you guys putting JR. batting cleanup. I've been saying this alot in the last few weeks. JR. in the cleanup spot give the Reds much need stability and better options all-around. I think this is the best lineup, but a couple of players would need to change positions:
Freel LF/3B
Lopez SS
Dunn 1B/LF
JR CF
EE 3B/1B
Kearns RF
Phillips 2B
Ross C
No Freel:
Phillips 2B
Lopez SS
Dunn LF
JR CF
EE 3B
Kearns RF
Hatte/Aurilia 1B
Ross C
Personally, I'd like to see the middle of the lineup remain consistent with Lopez, Dunn, JR, EE, Kearns batting 2-6 every day. When Freel, Aurilia, Hatte are in the lineup you switch positions 1 and 7 a little bit. Seems simple to me.

no Hatteberg?

I have a platform and a message, and now I go to bed at night, sober and happy, praying I can be a good messenger." -Josh Hamilton

I think that until Dunn proves he can do something other than get on base, he shouldn't be in a position where he needs to drive in runs on a frequent basis, at the top of the lineup. His RISP numbers were horrible at last look. I think it's great that he CAN get on base as much as he does, but he doesn't do much to help himself on the bases, and the focus ought to be on him driving other runners in. That's what they paid him to do, right?

They pay him to play baseball.
School's out. What did you expect?
I think you put Dunn in the fifth or sixth spot. The guy can't hit with runners in scorring position and thats what you want you're 3rd and 4th batters to do. Dunn can walk or hit his solo homers all day at the 5th and 6th spot and will probable have better numbers there. Griff is perfect for the 4th spot. Lopez and Phillips are great speed guys, they need to be at the top of the order setting the table we all agree on that so why does Narron have Phillips hitting deep in the order. Kearns is having a great year as well and hits for power and average a perfect fit for the 3 hole.
His batting average w/RISP numbers are bad. His overall RISP numbers are not. SLG% is the primary RBI driver, not batting average.
