I'm thinking another two out of three series for the Reds. I hate the matchup against Haren but think we look pretty good in the other two games. Hopefully Harang and Cueto can get back on their games.

[corwinator3407]

Sweep? Could, but probably 2 of 3.

[cbowen2112]

I say two of three as well. Haren will have his A game tomorrow, so he will not loose twice to us. If EdE comes back though and actually hits, we may sweep. Could be another morale booster. Full lineup minus AGon since April.

I get this rotten feeling in me anytime we're scheduled to face a lefty.

[PhillipsHead]

It's time to start producing a better record at home...

[Red in Atl]

EE will be back according to Fay. I give him a month. If he isn't helping, trade him!

I'd still give him another shot over DeRosa, but if he doesn't live up to the numerous chances this organization has given him, then he must go.

Was it fun watching the last two games or what? I like those lineups, am glad Rosales is back in Louisville, and hoping EE can finally become a man.

You shouldn't, we crush lefties. Our team OPS is like 30 points higher than vs. RHP.

BP and Gomes - if he gets the start in LF as he should - are monsters in a lineup vs. a lefty.
Hanigan should bat against lefties too.
Even JHJ is OPSing over .800 vs. LHP.

Votto is fine versus lefties, and Bruce can't be any worse - and he's lower in the lineup these days.

Once EE gets healthy, we are even more brutal vs. LHP.

PEACE
