5/8/05 reds-dodgers game

O.K. we have the sunday night game on ESPN. Milton's going against Weaver, we may have a chance to win 2 in a row.Would be really nice to see a sell-out here and give the boys a boost before the Pads come in. Also.it shows Lindner that even though times are tough the fans are still here. Maybe ol Carl will then force DanO to do something other than a simple roster move. I think the lineup should be;
1)Jimenez
2)Lopez
3)casey
4)Dunn
5)griffey
6)kearns
7)randa
8)larue
I think we should stick to this lineup until wily mo gets back,its the best we got and use Freel to give guys days off(miley's super sub).

I'm hoping for a good crowd as well. I'm taking my mother, our little tradition every year for mother's day. Hopefully Milton can keep the ball in the park tomorrow night and the offense can get it going again.

Re: 5/8/05 reds-dodgers game

If Milton pitches inside and keeps the ball down we will have a chance. He didnt that his last start and went 6 innings gave up 5 hits and 1 run. I hope he can do the same or better on sunday.

Re: 5/8/05 reds-dodgers game

Dunn has hit six of his eight homeruns this year in games televised by ESPN. Let's hope he can continue that trend and hit about two more Sunday night.

Re: 5/8/05 reds-dodgers game

Dunn probably doesn't like the fact that he doesn't get the attention he deserves on ESPN, which makes him extra motivated for the games on their network.

Re: 5/8/05 reds-dodgers game

Dunn is going to have a helluva game tomorrow, I can feel it. I'm also gonna go out on a limb and predict Milton does too. Let's give the boys in the pen a much needed rest!

I don't think Adam Dunn cares about ESPN exposure. He's never come across as that kind of person.

If you read on one of the blogs recent interview with Lancaster where they talked about what the players were like that would seem to be true. Lancaster's main point about Dunn was that he is not defined by baseball and caught up in the trappings that come with it. Very interesting read

Re: 5/8/05 reds-dodgers game

Well, I'm heading down to the GABP tonight for my second game of the year. I figured my attending yesterday did the team some good, so we'll see if we can't make it 2 for 2.

I'm betting on the coincidence of a small sample size.

Let's hope this isn't going to be the Mother's Day Massacre part II. I think we get a winning streak rolling to get back to .500!
