Castro sure is playing alot for someone with no chance of making the team.

Has there been a game yet this spring where the CFer hasn't led off?

I stilll fear a bunch of geezers(Castro, Stanton, Hatty, etc) are going to be around and playing a lot.

I hope I am wrong.

Even Jay Bruce led off the one game he played CF. It must be a rule in the manager's handbook.

What are the odds of Hatteberg and Castro both starting on Opening Day?

should be ZERO but it seems to me a 50/50 shot at the moment.

Hatteberg is the most likely to start between the two. I still can't imagine Castro being in the starting lineup but anything is possible.

Re: 3/3/08 - Reds vs. Twins
When Jeff Keppinger is in the lineup he should bat #1 or #2...

Dusty has had a penchant for playing vets. There is no denying it. The issue is whether it was more due to circumstance than anything else. I don't know the answer but we will find out. It should be a no-brainer that Bruce/Votto/Keppinger should be in the opening day lineup. However, I will believe it when I see it.

He will when he plays SS. Third basemen must hit in a power spot. That's also in the handbook.
