Re: Reds vs. Mets Tuesday 5/16/2012

This year Citi Field has been an extreme pitcher's park. Hopefully, Leake can make that work to his advantage.

Re: Reds vs. Mets Tuesday 5/16/2012

2 players are batting where they should. Votto and Frazier. Ok maybe Mes.

Want to see:

BP (has proven to be better at lead off, and proven to suck at 4)
Hanigan (high OBP which is what you want in front of Votto, Dusty,)
Votto
Bruce (perish the thought, 2 lefties together)
Heisey
Cozart (until he proves he can hit consistently)
Stubbs (has been better in 2 hole but who wouldn't be in front of Votto)
Frazier

Since Stubbs will bat 1st or 2nd, then bat Hanigan 5th.
None of this will ever happen.

Re: Reds vs. Mets Wednesday 5/16/2012

We have a bunch of two hitters. I think Stubbs, Cozart, and Phillips would all put up their best numbers in that position. Well since it's in front of Votto probably our entire team would.

The leadoff spot has been killing us though. I think Stubbs is sub .100 there and Cozart is in the .100s. Someone is gonna have to do well there, a healthy Phillips is probably our best option.

He's due for a day off. I can't remember the last time he wasn't in there.

Bruce is in the best shape of his life. His hitting around .300 and an OPS over .950

But we have Ludwick in there....stud

Re: Reds vs. Mets Wednesday 5/16/2012

We have had a bunch of days off the first two months of the season. It's ridiculous that Dusty feels the need to rest Bruce already.

Tonights final score Mets 5 Reds 2. Mets score 5 off Leake before he's shutdown in the 4th. Votto gets a RBI and someone else hits a solo shot.

Re: Reds vs. Mets Wednesday 5/16/2012

If the Reds were gonna give Bruce a day off during this 14-game stretch, this seems like the logical night. A tough lefty. A pitching match-up that favors the Mets on paper.

Santana has more strikeouts than innings pitched. He should be able to pile up a few more tonight.
