    I really like Ondrusek.

    Don't know why he gets so little appreciation lately.
    Poor peripherals are a big part of it. With his K/BB rate, he's considered a major candidate for a regression. It doesn't help that he's been just ok since May and is overshadowed by the rest of the pen.

    Because he's inconsistent and a bit fragile. I think he gets more than enough slack around here.

    Lineup would be:

    Fraizer
    Stubbs
    Ludwick
    Bruce
    Rolen
    Hanigan
    Cozart
    Cairo/Valdez
    pitcher

    I would advise Walt to DL Brandon retro to Tuesday and let him heal
    I would advise Walt to remove appeal and let suspension happen and get over with and demote Paul for those 3 days to cover the roster spot that can't be used
    I would use Marshall more and not just as a LH specialist.
    I would advise Walt to DFA Bray

    that is what I would do right now to maximize my team until votto and phillips returned.
