6/21- Reds @ A's
Brandon Phillips 2b
Paul Janish ss Joey Votto 1b Scott Rolen 3b Jonny Gomes lf Drew Stubbs cf Chris Heisey rf Miguel Cairo DH Ramon Hernandez c Mike Leake p vs. LHP Gio Gonzalez (6-5, 4.21) I don't feel too bad about this lineup except the part where Stubbs bats 6th. I've got PBP. I'll be doing what I was trying to do Thursday when I first started doing PBP again: Break the Reds out of a funk. They've got to get the bats goin' tonight. 320

Re: 6/21- Reds @ A's
No Bruce and Cairo as DH? No me gusto. Is Gonzalez that tough against lefties that you'd rather have Cairo and deal with Gomes defense when you could've gotten him out of there?

Re: 6/21- Reds @ A's
With Bruce & Cabrera getting the day off, Dusty's choices for DH consisted of Nix, Corky and Cairo. Going with Cairo leaves us with at least a somewhat potent bat on the bench for PH duties. Getting Hanigan back would be a nice boost (as would getting somebody up here who can replace Cairo.)

Re: 6/21- Reds @ A's
How about letting Leake bat?

Re: 6/21- Reds @ A's
They need to either use it in both leagues or get rid of it. I prefer get rid of it.
