I guess Pete has figured out that Ross isn't going to hit.

Cabrera has an OPS of over 1.300 vs. LHP this season.
It's been raining very hard. Could be a delay.

Maybe Dunn was thinking if he didn't take the bat off his shoulders he might get on base.

... but seems to have his command tonight . He is tough when he has command because his stuff is nasty.

I'm sure like many pitchers, that he's just much less effective when he has to pitch from the stretch. We just have to get more runners to first base against him. Though I was being facetious with Dunn, Dunn had three chances to where he almost accomplished this and it was a nice effort by Dunn to get on base.

Re: 7/21/07 - Reds vs. Marlins Game Thread
How many hits do y'all think Livingston'll get today? I think it'll be a rough day for him, so I'll say he'll go two-for-three with a double.

Re: 7/21/07 - Reds vs. Marlins Game Thread
Anyone else think the lack of an advance scout might be why theyre having so much trouble with Kim?

Re: 7/21/07 - Reds vs. Marlins Game Thread
It might have something to do with all the extra-base hits the Marlins are getting, too. Players' tendencies change from week to week...why else would they have advance scouts in the first play if it wasn't for part of that reason?

Re: 7/21/07 - Reds vs. Marlins Game Thread
Encarnacion just threw out Miggy at the tail end of a "dive/throw from knees" highlight reel effort. Ridiculous.

Re: 7/21/07 - Reds vs. Marlins Game Thread
Freel's 10-pitch at-bat last time up is the best the REDS have done against Kim so far through 3 pefect innings. Freel's picked up his offense lately, so look for him to start a good inning for the REDS here.

Re: 7/21/07 - Reds vs. Marlins Game Thread
3 pitches is better than 1-pitch outs, I guess.
Let's get on base and make Kim pitch from the stretch.
