Re: 8/1/10 Braves@Reds

I like this lineup. Nix has been very hot, and it sure won't hurt to give Stubbs a break in favor of Heisey.

I'm going to the game today....

Re: 8/1/10 Braves@Reds

Many posters complain about the need to get OF help on this team, yet our #5 OF has a .790 OPS and can play all 3 OF positions.

He might well be starting in the Cards OF right now, yet many say we need OF help, while the Cards trade of Ludwick is nothing they can't handle internally?

I agree he's very underappreciated.

Agreed. And here's something I've been debating over in my head all season long. Who's forearms does Nix have? Popeye's or Steve Garvey's?

Re: 8/1/10 Braves@Reds

Conrad 5
Heyward 9
Infante 4
McCann 2
Hinske 3
Gonzalez 6
Ankiel 8
Cabrera 7
Hanson 1

A bit of a Sunday special for the Braves, with Chipper and Glaus both off. New acquisition, and former Cardinal, Rick Ankiel in CF. Former Red Alex Gonzalez at SS.

Re: 8/1/10 Braves@Reds

With a win today, the Reds will be 9-1-1 in their last 11 series. Is that good?

But, but, but.... they didn't make any trades!

Reds are 73-45 when Scott Rolen is in the lineup. Just insane.

Re: 8/1/10 Braves@Reds

JTM should get Jay Bruce to do a "How do you do 32? commercials. He could strikeout vs a lefty with a RISP. As he walks back to the dugout he can say "That's how I 32!"
