Looks like few if any RBI chances for Phillips and Ludwick again. Same old and worn out story.

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.

Dusty's lineups are a combined 78-52 this season. If you can't fully support that then that is a you issue.

If the issue is wanting the team to be even better, then you are correct.

The record has very little to do with the lineup he puts out there as we're scoring less than we did last year as a losing team.

So, by that logic, lineup construction is largely irrelevant. Yet the first page of every game thread has some silly gripe about it.

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.

Hope they don't skip him against the Cardinals this weekend. Could be a 5 game losing streak for them if they don't come back from now 6-0 down.
