Re: 5/5/12 - Reds at Pirates
Stubbs is what he is, so no use getting all upset about it...but he just seems like a pitch guesser at the plate. Which leads to feast or famine.

Re: 5/5/12 - Reds at Pirates
Dear Dusty,
Move Phillips to lead off, Cozart to 2nd, Bruce to clean up

Phillips strikes out swinging to end the inning.

Re: 5/5/12 - Reds at Pirates
I saw that K coming a mile away. Yep, hitting Phillips 4th is criminal

Re: 5/5/12 - Reds at Pirates
Very tough matchup for Phillips. Good strategy to walk Votto to make Phillips face a tough righty.

Re: 5/5/12 - Reds at Pirates
What he is, is a 5th OFer who should play against LHP, PR and come in for late game defense.

Re: 5/5/12 - Reds at Pirates
Ask Dusty. Failure is not the reason to change your lineup.

Re: 5/5/12 - Reds at Pirates
Take heart. The Cards are STILL losing 6-1 to the Astros.
