Gotta score more. I've seen this Pirate come back time and time again.

Big stick part of the order. Need to get guys on to get Latos up. He's the thunder.

Re: 8/3/12 - Reds vs. Pirates
The funny thing is he was brought up because he was better OFFENSIVELY than our previous SS. I think he'll get better at the plate as the years go on. I'm just wondering what we're going to do with Hamilton when he's ready... Will he be turned into an outfielder? 3rd base?

Re: 8/3/12 - Reds vs. Pirates
Heisey should be called "The Swinger" for obvious reasons.
