In the finale of the Phillies' series their broadcaster stated that Cozart was battling a bad back. That is the only mention that I have heard of regarding Cozart's health, or lack thereof. Did I sound like Marty there?
Cozart sidelined by sore back: MLB.com reports Reds shortstop Zack Cozart was held out of the starting lineup for a second straight game Wednesday against the Phillies because of a sore back, according to manager Dusty Baker. Didi Gregorious replaced Cozart in the starting lineup Wednesday.

im not worried yet.
If Cozy isn't 95+%....let his rest and recover/strengthen.....as long as he can be back at full strength with 7 or 8 games to go I'll be happy.
This is why a cushion is nice.
I like 1-7.....Luddy and Frazier aren't killing it right now and Bruce should be 4th....but I know the rules.
We'll prolly score 1 run over about 11 innings tonight.
Staistically, this is probably the best line-up the Reds have had all year.
1. Phillips - .294
2. Heisey - .289
3. Votto - .346
4. Ludwick - .276
5. Bruce - .265
6. Frazier - .289
7. Navarro - .296
8. Valdez - .196 (kind of drops the average a bit)
For a while the Reds were only playing 1 or 2 players whose averages were over .250 each night. Bruce was under for awhile as well as Ludwick. Frazier has brought his average up a lot, but I think he was around .250 for a while.
Even with Valdez, I can't think of a night when the Reds had an a team batting average this high on the field.
Again, it will probably be an 11 inning 1 run game - but at least the line-up looks pretty.
According to Fay Rolen is also having some back issues, and Stubbs is getting some time off to try and figure things out.
Hopefully it's about 10,000 upper degree calculus questions.Originally Posted by Stray
I like that -- my mind went towards -- how can he get all of his things in that mover's box -- but your line of thought is prolly better for the team right now
The older I get - the better I was
and yes - I hate the Cardinals (Reds fan since 1958)
I miss Raisor
Homer will not get to throw that ball again --down 2 in the first

Maxwell has Bailey's number
Frazier has been grounding into way too many double plays of late..
So do I....its 34!!!
Stubbs is furthering Einstein's work. Baseball is but a trivial matter at this point. Time travel, is it possible? What really happens when you die? What created the universe? All these will be answered.
Best game thread post in a long time.
