Not shocked, but I still shake my head.

Re: July 6th, 2012- Reds @ Padres
There isn't a way to shuffle those deck chairs that's really going to make a big difference. The fact is the Reds need more players who make less outs. Barring that this offense is going to continue to be incredibly frustrating.

Re: July 6th, 2012- Reds @ Padres
Sure there is: Phillips batting 1st is a start. Or anything where the two worst hitters are not hitting in front of the team's best.

Re: July 6th, 2012- Reds @ Padres
Cozart and Stubbs are the top two outmakers on the team. While a lot of the players make a lot of outs, putting literally the two kings of that castle at the top of the lineup is absurd.

Re: July 6th, 2012- Reds @ Padres
I'm perfectly fine with the idea of Phillips batting lead off but regardless of where anybody is hitting when you have 3-4 guys in the lineup struggling to OBP .300 the marginal value of where they hit isn't going to make all that much difference aside from making us feel better.

Re: July 6th, 2012- Reds @ Padres
I tend to think that Frazier's .335 OBP would be nice in the 2-hole.

Re: July 6th, 2012- Reds @ Padres
To be clear, if it was up to me Stubbs and Cozart would be batting 7 & 8....

Re: July 6th, 2012- Reds @ Padres
I disagree there would ne effect from having BP 1st Frazier 2nd then Votto Ludwick and Bruce. You're replacing 2 abysmal OBP with 2 guys with decent OBPs. That alone would make a big difference.

Re: July 6th, 2012- Reds @ Padres
Pirates are trailing in 4th 5-3 but they are threatening with guys 1 and 3rd. Zito gets out of it nothing scoring. Bedard's already been knocked out by the Giants. Pirates pen is in the game.
