Lineup per C Trent:

Freel 3b
Hopper cf
Griffey rf
Phillips 2b
Dunn lf
Hatteberg 1b
Gonzalez ss
Ross c
Harang p

Hopper batting 2nd. It's scraptastic!

Heath · 07-13-2007, 04:00 PM

Well, at least the Mets won't pitch around Dunn..........

I think Petey Mac draws numbers for his lineup construction the way some Catholic churches call Bingo Night.

edabbs44 · 07-13-2007, 04:03 PM

I'm going and I don't see EdE. WEAK!

But thank God Harang is throwing. I'd be throwing (up) if Lohse was pitching.

oneupper · 07-13-2007, 04:07 PM

Maine has been throwing well for the Mets.
Guess its "manufacturing runs" time.

BP has a .749 OPS this year in the cleanup spot.

Matt700wlw · 07-13-2007, 04:12 PM

Hurry back, Josh.

RedsManRick · 07-13-2007, 04:14 PM

11 Reds have at least 100 AB.

OBP
1. Hatteberg, .407
2. Griffey, .391
3. Hamilton, .371
4. Dunn, .355
5. EE, .348
6. Conine, .326
7. Hopper, .323
8. Phillips, .322
9. Freel, .307
10. Gonzalez, .295
11. Ross, .248

SLG
1. Griffey, .566
2. Dunn, .544
3. Hamilton, .543
4. Hatteberg, .489
5. Phillips, .478
6. Gonzalez, .442
7. Conine, .412
8. Ross .401
9. EE, .385
10. Freel, .361
11. Hopper, .339

Now I see how it works. Hitting high in the order isn't about getting on base. It's about not having any power whatsoever.

BRM · 07-13-2007, 04:18 PM

3 of the top 4 spots in the order are occupied by low OBP guys. Nice.

lollipopcurve · 07-13-2007, 04:19 PM

I hope Freel and his Amazing Versatility are being showcased for interested parties.

CTA513 · 07-13-2007, 04:30 PM

Play Keppinger at third base if Encarnacion isn't going to play.

RedsManRick · 07-13-2007, 04:34 PM

I wonder if Mac knows that Dunn hits lefties better than Hopper and Freel hit anybody.

Stop making sense, guys. We'll have none of that around here.

Remember: Ryan Freel is the Reds' SPARK (he'll cause a short circuit every time).

I'm beginning to wonder if anyone remotely identified with this franchise can pick a manager...

Bowden - Boone
Bowden - Miley
O'Brien - Narron
Krivsky - Narron
Macklanin (not fair, I know).

All basically have done the same thing leading me to believe that maybe, just maybe, all the good managers are gone.

They are run producers

Looking at your list I wonder if anyone can pick a GM
