vs. LHP Gio Gonzalez (6-5, 4.21)
I don't feel too bad about this lineup except the part where Stubbs bats 6th.
I've got PBP. I'll be doing what I was trying to do Thursday when I first started doing PBP again: Break the Reds out of a funk. They've got to get the bats goin' tonight.

I'd rather listen to Kelch read the phone book than suffer through Thom Brennaman's attempt to make every instance on the field the most important event since the discovery of manned space flight. -westofyou

No Bruce and Cairo as DH? No me gusto. Is Gonzalez that tough against lefties that you'd rather have Cairo and deal with Gomes defense when you could've gotten him out of there?
Games are won on run differential -- scoring more than your opponent. Runs are runs, scored or prevented they all count the same. Worry about scoring more and allowing fewer, not which positions contribute to which side of the equation or how "consistent" you are at your current level of performance.
Cairo as DH? I don't get it
Bruce needs to regroup. His swing is kind of screwed up these days.No Bruce and Cairo as DH? No me gusto.
With Bruce & Cabrera getting the day off, Dusty's choices for DH consisted of Nix, Corky and Cairo. Going with Cairo leaves us with at least a somewhat potent bat on the bench for PH duties. Getting Hanigan back would be a nice boost (as would getting somebody up here who can replace Cairo.)
How about letting Leake bat?

Stupid me (and stupid AL).

Yes he can. But if he does then the Reds can't use a DH. Further, you are not allowed to PH for a DH IIRC.
School's out. What did you expect?
Yes, you can PH for the DH, the PH becomes the new DH.

They need to either use it in both leagues or get rid of it. I prefer get rid of it.
I don't think so.

Yep, he can be replaced.
