Baker needed to try something to "fix" the offense.

Valdez at 2 seems to be it.

Sugar in the gas tank.

Valdez hardly ever gets a start. I don't have any issues with him getting a spot start every so often, in the 2 hole kinda boggles my mind tho.

Re: Reds vs. Pirates Monday 5/28

Why would you bunt guys over on a 2 and 0 count with Valdez(the worst hitter on the team) on deck.?

Yeah....let him start once every 7 games....but batting 2nd IMO would mean he should be playing way more than every 7 games.

Worst player you've ever seen in your life? You must not watch a lot of baseball.

1. Heisey
2. Stubbs

somewhere near the bottom of the order. Valdez

That would have made more sense to me.
