We deserve to lose this game.

Any lineup that features no Adam Dunn, Juan Castro starting, and Conine and Seabass hitting 4th and 5th is a lineup that deserves to lose.

deserving has nothing to do with it. It is just an awful lineup, I'm sure I'd take the Nats starting lineup today over this bunch.

Jerry said when they were going to face the 3 lefties this past week.....Hamilton would sit one, Griffey would sit one, and Dunn would sit one.


I guess he's true to his word.

Freel will get most of the starts....most.

Supposedly Keppinger is supposed to see significant time as well.


At least Freel is feeling better.

Either Keppinger or Castro has started at 3rd the last 3 games.

Edwin should be up here. Simple as that.

The season is long. Edwin will be back soon.

Re: 5-13-07 Reds vs Dodgers - JN one ups himself

Sending down EE is bad enough, but combining that with using Castro to give guys days off and this line-up is starting to look bad.

Obviously Freel would have been getting Castro's starts, but to me that is the reason why EE should be up right now. This team without EE has zero depth and cannot afford to bench regulars since Castro seems to find ways to work himself in the line-up.

Castro getting 2 starts in any series, let alone an entire season, makes it very difficult for me to believe that this team actually expects to contend.

I'm not one to complain about line-ups, but the last couple of days have made things very frustrating. A team that needs to start reeling off wins with contention getting further away starts Juan Castro over Adam Dunn.

Giving Castro any kind of regular at-bats guarantees that this season is over IMO.

You can look at that way I guess. After a couple of weeks of Castro at-the-bat, fans (and Narron) will be clamoring for EE's return and possible more forgiving with his defensive shortcomings. (Hey...who knows?)
