Re: Reds vs. D'backs Tuesday 8/28
Looks like few if any RBI chances for Phillips and Ludwick again. Same old and worn out story.

Re: Reds vs. D'backs Tuesday 8/28
Hanigan's .380 OBP is being wasted because he's a catcher....it's things like this, why Red's fans can't fully support Dusty.

Re: Reds vs. D'backs Tuesday 8/28
Dusty's lineups are a combined 78-52 this season. If you can't fully support that then that is a you issue.

Re: Reds vs. D'backs Tuesday 8/28
If the issue is wanting the team to be even better, then you are correct.

Re: Reds vs. D'backs Tuesday 8/28
So, by that logic, lineup construction is largely irrelevant. Yet the first page of every game thread has some silly gripe about it.

Re: Reds vs. D'backs Tuesday 8/28
Dusty Baker, Walt Jocketty and Reds' management don't agree with this line of thinking. If they did, please tell me why is Devin Mesoraco in Louisville? A team should ALWAYS try to get better. If that means changing up the lineup then so be it.

Re: Reds vs. D'backs Tuesday 8/28
The Reds are 78-52 because of career years(Cueto,Ludwick,Frazier) and luck. We have been great in 1 run games unlike last year where we sucked. Even though we got our share of fluff(Bailey,Rolen,Ondrusuck,Stubbs) compared to other teams, we still find ways to win.
I give Dusty credit, he motivates and gets guys to play harder than their talent level, but that usually fails in the post-season. |
