7/20- Reds vs. Nationals- Phillips out, Rolen still out

Cabrera 6
Janish 4
Votto 3
Gomes 7
Bruce 9
Cairo 5
Stubbs 7
Miller 2
Leake 1

Miler also in for Hanigan. Not the best lineup today. Hope dearly it's just an off-day for BP.

No PBP for me tonight as I'll be at this one

Holy smokes that is a horrible lineup.

At least Nix isn't playing!

It's a fine line-up, I am good with Phillips getting an occasional day of rest. It's hot, and we need him in August and September.

That's not a very good lineup. I agree with resting BP and I'm not blaming Dusty there are just a lot of guys banged up right now. His hands are kind of tied but that's not very good. Really hope Votto and Bruce wake up tonight.

Phillips has been in a slump and played rather than rested during the All-Star break. So it makes sense he should get a day off.

I don't know why Hanigan isn't playing today, although my guess is the Reds want their best possible lineup tomorrow when Strasburg pitches.

Reds need to take three of four from the Nats.

Sounds like a good theory to me. And I agree with you on taking the series. The Reds have a softer schedule in the 2nd half and need to take advantage of it.

Hopefully Janish remembers how to hit. 9 days since his last at bat. Weird that Cabrera is struggling and they have had no days off.

Dusty, why do you hate Paul so much?

Re: 7/20- Reds vs. Nationals- Phillips out, Rolen still out

Ugh. Yeah, I don't care for that lineup at all. Miller behind the dish? Janish in the 2 hole and playing SECOND? I get giving Brandon a day off, but I would've bumped Stubbs to the 1 or 2 hole for this one game. Janish needs to be in the bottom half of the lineup. I also would've considered moving Bruce up to the 2 hole. He needs a change, and I think some protection in the lineup is just what the doctor ordered.

Today (and health) not withstanding, I've been leaning towards something like this...

Phillips
Bruce
Votto
Rolen
Gomes
Hanigan
Stubbs
Cabrera/Janish
Pitcher

But watch...we'll score 15 runs with the lineup we're running out there today. *grin*

Cabrera has 8 hits in his last 5 games.
