Here's hoping Kepp is the DH today and for the rest of the trip. That way they get his bat and don't rush his knee into the field.

I get this crazy feeling that Javy or Corey are the ones to go.
"My mission is to be the ray of hope, the guy who stands out there on that beautiful field and owns up to his mistakes and lets people know it's never completely hopeless, no matter how bad it seems at the time. 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

what was the point of bringing him back then?

6 LH Hitters against Pettitte. Go figure. I'd bench Griffey, let Dunn DH and play Hopper in LF. Good OF play is needed in Yankee Stadium with Cueto pitching. Griffey can't hit LH anyway. And if Ross isn't good enough to catch Cueto to get his bat in there against a LH when it actually has a chance to be helpful, why have him on the team? This catching group is so bad I can't describe it.
All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!

I like the Phillips, Votto, Dunn....still don't like Griffey in the 3 hole
Janish in the 2 hole again. Unebelievable.

Posted by JohnFay at 6/22/2008 11:53 AM EDT on Cincinnati.com
The Reds activated Jeff Keppinger from the disabled list and designated Andy Phillips for assignment. The club hopes Philiips passes through waivers so he can be assigned to Louisville.
"He did a good job for us," Walt Jocketty said. "He knows his role. He's played for a winner."
More moves are coming. Jerry Hairston is eligible to come off the DL Wednesday. "It's a day-to-day, week-to-week thing, Dusty Baker said.
The lineup:
Norris Hopper lf
Keppinger ss
Ken Griffey Jr. rf
Brandon Phillips 2b
Edwin Encarnacion 3b
Joey Votto 1b
Jay Bruce rf
Corey Patterson cf
David Ross c
v. LH Andy Pettitte
Adam Dunn is getting a day off. "He looks lost," Baker said. "He's behind on fastball's and ahead on breaking balls.
"It can't hurt," Dunn said.

Glad to see Fay posting 2 players in RF. Awesome.
He's such an idiot.
