Dunn and Griffey should be flipped.
Most people agree with that.
Hatte should bat 2nd, IMO.
Maybe so. But Jr is starting to heat up, not a bad idea to ride it now, considering we had to suffer through a horrendous July to get here.Originally Posted by reds44
Overall, the truth is that I really can not vehemently disagree with Narron's recent lineups, and I think it speaks more to the level of talent than anything.
Feliz is the kind of hacking junk that kills the Reds.
Hope I'm wrong.
This is the time. The real Reds organization is back.
I agree Griff is coming out of his funk....which is all the more reason to get Dunn ahead of him at #3.
Baseball is like church. Many attend, few understand
Jr is the more seasoned hitter, and CAN hit for contact when needed. You want your #3 hitter to: 1, drive in your 1, 2 hitters or.. 2, be on base for ur #4 and #5 hitter.
#3 hitter is typically your BEST BAT. The one you count on the most IMO.. some may think your best hitter is the one who gets on base more, or the one with the bettr avg. other than ur leadoff. Jr has the patiance to bat #3 and i just dont feel dunn is better than jr as a #3 hitter.
Besides if you bat Dunn #3 his chances of being at the plate with no one on are a bit higher.. at #5, if any 2 batter ahead of him get on in the first inning he's batting with a runner in scoring possition. Not to mention his power #'s.
if u flop dunn and jr in THIS LINEUP.. id walk dunn everytime and let the inexperance of edwin GIDP

Welcome to beautiful SBC Park in San Francisco, for the opener of four between the suddenly resurgent Giants and the most loveable and entertaining mediocre ballclub of all time, your Cincinnati Reds. Thanks to a 5-2 New York win over the Cards, the Redlegs will move into a tie for first with a win.
The illustrious Jon Miller is on play-by-play, and I can confirm that given his enormous bald round head and pinched facial features that he continues to look like an animated billiard ball.
On the hill for the Giants is Brad Hennessey. He's pitched mostly out of the pen this season and it was somewhat surprising news that he was slated to start this game.
The Reds will send up Freel, Hatteberg, and Griffey in the top of the first.
anyone have a radio feed?

Only the leadoff hitter leads off more innings than the number five hitter.
Please don't let this be the beginning of the end. I am enjoying this season too much for that to happen.
Let's get this going....I need something to wake me up
Normally, I'm ready to roll at this time...now I'm yawning
Rarin to be some mighty good PBP! Don't disappoint!
Like i said.. batting dunn #3 in THIS LINEUP.. id walk him EVERYTIME and make edwin beat me, especially with a runner on and an out.
now if they do that to JR, then they HAVE TO pitch to edwin, cause you dont want dunn at the plate with 2 or 3 runners on base EVER!! and 1 out.. i mean we the reds fans want that.. but no one else does
Just my thoughts on it... and the way id think

That Jon Miller crack was a canned joke, and as it turns out he is not calling the game tonight. Also, they changed the name of the stadium again.
Two inaccuracies in the pregame post is pretty impressive.
Lets Goooooooooooooooooo Reds!!!!!!!!!
