Re: Game Thread for 5/11--- Padres @ Reds

Why does it take a slow, weak hitting middle infielder getting injured before finally putting up a respectable lineup card?

Probably the same reason 3 years of Colorado Rockies quality pitching occured in Cincinnati.

Lack of imagination, common sense and cajones.

Amazing, isn't it?

But at least it's there now.

Let's roll with it and take this series.

Confidence breeds more confidence.

Re: Game Thread for 5/11--- Padres @ Reds

I would still like Dunn a little higher, Casey a little lower and Kearns a little higher, but this lineup is better(due to injury) than most have been this season.

If the lineup busts out today, hopefully it will give Miley some confidence to keep the same lineup for consecutive games

With knowing how Miley manages, we wont see this line-ip again untill next week, or the week after.

Re: Game Thread for 5/11--- Padres @ Reds

I was hoping Miley would give Bergolla a 'getaway day' start. Still don't understand the reasoning behind bringing him up, but that's the best part of being a Reds fan.

The reasoning is that he was on the 40 man roster and none of the AAA OFs were.

Sounds like O'Brien made some poor decisions in setting the 40-man roster.

Re: Game Thread for 5/11--- Padres @ Reds

So.. is really going to be 85 in Cincinati today?

If so I'll say two things, one: It will be a factor. Two: Paul Wilson will look like a mess even if he pitches good.

It is going to be that warm, although there could be some late-day storms to cool things down.

And I agree that it will be a factor and that Paul will be a sweaty mess by the end, win or lose.
