I don't know where Francisco fits into Walt's "plan," but I cannot remember a Reds power prospect with a streak like this in the longest time.
Bruce and Heisey had periods of great all around hitting in the minors, but for sheer power Francisco is hitting like he did in the Dominican last winter. Awesome.
This guy's ability to hit the ball with authority and power is off the charts. He's not a polished all around player yet, but the Reds have to be thinking where he fits in.
Bats win 10-2 to go 21 over for the first time this season

Dayton is being no-hit through six.
Ramirez needs Sept. call up to see if he can be part of 2010 bullpen.
Billings down 1-0 in the 3rd
Gregorius 1 for 2 and hitting .331
Apparently I can't count.
5 Bats had multiple hits
Dorn: 273/348/469/817
If my math is correct, Dorn's over 800 OPS for the first time all year. Pretty impressive climb from a pretty serious hole. Probably too late for the Reds to take much notice, but the guy deserves a shot somewhere to see what he can do.
I'm guessing he's a legitimate bat at the major league level.
Junior Arias went 2-for-4 with two home runs (#5, 6) and 3 RBI today. He's now hit four homers in his last four games. He's OPSing .983 in August and .710 overall.
Dayton is the victim of a 7-inning no-hitter by Simon Castro of Fort Wayne.
