Re: Reds vs Pirates 8/13/08
Corey gets the start over Dickerson against the lefty.
Anyone surprised?

Re: Reds vs Pirates 8/13/08
Ok, this is my very first lineup complaint in the six-ish years I've been here....
There is absolutley no reason Chris Dickerson should not be back in the lineup and leading off.

Re: Reds vs Pirates 8/13/08
Judging from the interviews and articles written on Dickerson, he's a very smart dude and a nice guy.

Re: Reds vs Pirates 8/13/08
Why are Rosales and Dickerson on the bench in favor of Andy Phillips and Cory Patterson?
Really, what is the point? Why go bad when you can go young?

Re: Reds vs Pirates 8/13/08
Keppinger singles after swinging at a terrible 3-1 pitch before that.

Re: Reds vs Pirates 8/13/08
The lineup Baker never gives it a rest. Seasons over, 42 games left, a good chance to look at various players and Patterson is still king........auditioning for next year.

But what's Adam got to do to get a start? Sheesh! Does anybody seriously believe that Andy Phillips or Jolbert Cabrera have more of a future with the Reds than Rosales does? Not a chance.

Re: Reds vs Pirates 8/13/08
Heh.
I knew Bruce's impatience would result in him swinging at something he couldn't drive resulting in a ground ball, but I agree. It might have happened with the next batter, too.

Re: Reds vs Pirates 8/13/08
That pitch Bruce swung at was a strike. If he takes it it's strike three.
