Re: Reds vs. Indians Monday 6/18

I guess I would just like to see somebody batting in the 1 and 2 holes that can get on consistently for Votto. The names aren't really important. And Cozart looks like a pretty good bet to end up being a solid major leaguer. I still believe they are wasting Hanigan in the 8th (or 9th) spot in the lineup.

Frazier is second on the team in OPS...well ahead of 3rd. Why wouldn't he bat 8th.

Because six games ago, they had just lost five out of seven. Rolen should bat last, like the hitter he is at this point of his career. That was one pathetic lineup out there yesterday. Clutch hitting by Phillips and an error by the other team is the only reason we got any runs.

Frazier should be batting 4th or 5th, Hanigan 1st or 2nd, and Rolen dead last. Even if Rolen goes on a "hot" streak, where he OPS's .750 for a week or two, he should still be batting last.

Being the Veteran that he is, Rolen probably comes through with an RBI tonight in his first game back.

Last time I checked, how you win doesn't matter, and right now we have 4-5 game lead and are 10+ games over in the win side. As my friend said, all you can do is win, you can't "super win" or double win a game, you just win and they have. So why change it if it ain't broke.

Now, all of a sudden, it is "your (sic) winning, how do you improve that?

Even the BEST like to add better depth. That is about all this team is lacking....to an extent. If you can't see that, then please enlighten.
