    Reds@Nats Thursday 8/18 Rubber Game

    No lineups yet but I wanted to get this out there early.

    MLB.com is listing the Reds/Nationals game as the Free TV Game of the Day. I guess you just go to MLB.com and sign up and watch it.

    Reds management isn't happy unless they are playing a man short. It was interesting to see the rumor at MLBtraderumors that Arizona came asking about Renteria and the word is that the Reds are not interested in moving him. Key word is rumor. Who knows how much truth there is to that.

    Rain delay. Marty and Jim are talking about injuries and it seems that Janish is hurting from turf toe. That may be the reason they are reluctant to put Renteria on the 15-day DL.

    In that case, does Frazier get starts at SS? I think he's the only one on the roster other than Janish capable of playing that spot.

    There used to be a lot of clamoring about putting Brandon at short. I think if both of them are hurt at the same time one goes on the DL and either Negron or Valaika come up.
    On a side note, Janish's turf toe might explain why Renteria isn't available in a trade.

    Banana phone time.

    Ridiculous rumor of the week:

    Oester - manager.
    Power - pitching coach.
    Jones - hitting coach.

    Sappelt swinging at the first pitch right after a walk. Nice. Flies out to RF. Votto bounces to first. DatDudeBP moves up 90 feet.

    Just wondering...does the Reds hitting coach do anything?

    Maybe it is a false impression, but the Reds seem to play shorthanded a lot.

    Bruce grounds out to end the first. This leadoff walk didn't haunt.
