Aurilia is 4th, Kearns 5th.

Kearns is batting .474 off left handers this year.

[reds44]

Besides RA battign 4th I LOVE this lineup. It has all the players I want in it. Ross vs. lefties is a must, and BP is at 2nd, with RA at 1st.

BUT, RA is scrappy, knows how to play, all that good stuff.

Don't forget "veteran precsence"

[redssouth]

You know, if it wasnt for all the complaining about the lineup, and everyone trying to make "scrappy" jokes, the game thread could actually be useful. But what used to be a great way to read through and find out what happened in the game if you happen to miss one, you have to sort through 16 pages of scrappy, 2 pages of how the lineup should be, and the occaisonal star trek whatever in the hell that was yesterday. I mean really, the scrappy thing isnt funny anymore, not that it ever was, but especially not after the board comedians have made 3000 references to it. My rant is finished, please disregard.

My advice to you would be to refrain from viewing any game threads when the game has not yet begun....

This is a better LHP Lineup the way it is

I like. Im gonna miss Ross when he goes.. he's very scrappy.

Phillips has been impressive, both offensively and defensively, but I still would prefer to see DeNo in CF and Freel at 2B, but all said, the right people, but still wrong...swap Kearns and Aurilia and boom, great lineup.

[RedsMan3203]

RA is put in a spot where he can Succeed... And I really don't mind him being there...

A) He isn't taking away playing time from anyone - He worked for it.

B) He has been there done that (Vertern thing)

C) Has anyone else on the team in the past and 13 games come up with more timely hits then he has?

Granted, he isn't what he was in the past. But he sure is doing a better job then most.

[KronoRed]

When we had 2 game threads one was almost all PBP

[SirFelixCat]

Redssouth does have a point though. Pregame, it's fine. During the game, I do hope for quality pbp. That's what this thing is for...for those to follow along who can't watch/listen and for those that are watching/listening to chime in with their thoughts. It's not the place to debate etc. It's for game action and thoughts on that.


Pregame, though, have at it. Narron brings it upon himself
