'bout the best group of players we currently have.

Tommyjohn25 · 05-22-2008, 10:07 PM

Freel starts it out with a single. Nice start. He's having himself a nice season offensively.

Freel lines a single to left

Cyclone792 · 05-22-2008, 10:08 PM

What's this, a leadoff hitter that's getting on base? When was this discovered? I never knew such a thing existed.

Tommyjohn25 · 05-22-2008, 10:10 PM

Does anyone else get sick of hearing the word "velocitized" from Welsh? Geez....

Tommyjohn25 · 05-22-2008, 10:11 PM

Hey!!! 598!!!

corkedbat · 05-22-2008, 10:13 PM

Junior off the schneid! WooHoo! 598 (200 as a Red)

WebScorpion · 05-22-2008, 10:08 PM

I understand putting the right-handed center fielder in to face the lefty Wolf, but why stick with the left-handed catcher? I'm not saying it's wrong, just wondering how to justify it. To me, this says Dusty thinks Bako's game calling and defense are far superior to Ross...enough to justify the drop off in offense. That or Ross is just tired.

Janish strikes out swinging. 1 out.

Tom Servo · 05-22-2008, 10:10 PM

If only Freel knew how to play SS and could do it compatently, it would solve a lot of problems.

As long as we're wishing, could we have Jay Bruce be a superior defensive SS...that'd solve all our problems at once.

That's a good point. I was thinking Freel to SS would give him an everyday spot that gets his bat into the lineup and his glove out of the outfield, and opens up a spot for Bruce in center. Unfortunatly SS isn't one of Freel's versatilities.

Finally! Junior!

Junior homers to right center. #598! 2-0 Reds
