    Jr. agrees to bat 7th because Ozzie may shoot one of his kids if he doesn't.
    Next Reds manager, second shooter. --Confirmed on Redszone.

    Batting 7th hasn't been very good to Junior. He's 5-24 (.208).

    A good argument could be made to bat Dunn 2nd or 3rd.
    However, I can't see Jr batting 7th on this team. Too many bad hitters, even though Jr is no longer a superstar.

    Batting Dunn #3 in the batting order, and batting Jr 5th or 6th, wouldn't have really made a difference. We're still a last place team.
