Prediction: Izturis scores the first run today.

Or he goes 0-4 and makes 2 errors. What do I know, I'm not psychic.

More proof Dusty puts bench players in the 2 hole to get them more AB as he hasn't gotten them many of late.

As bad as those two have been Izturis and Hannahan are worse. I'm sorry I'm not real excited to see a lineup featuring Izturis, Hannahan, Heisey, and Hanigan. Especially after suffering through a shutout last night.

I don't have a problem with Hannahan today, I think he's had better at bats of late.

Hanigan is going to get his games.

Izturis. No comment.

I cannot understand the Reds' apparent desire to hit Phillips second. He is slow going to first, hits all these DP balls. Just don't get it.

I researched it last year but in his past 35 or so DP's.....only 3 were to the right of the 2nd base bag.

When he tries to be powerful he is a DP nightmare.

Billy Hamilton at third? I haven't been following him down at Louisville, but has he been playing at that position?No, Soto is playing 3rd. Billy is still playing center field. Which is why they are 'high' on Soto...if you can get a first basemans bat at third it really helps out the offense. :thumbup:

I think they were talking about Soto at third. He's played the past 66 games exclusively at 3rd after starting the season at 1st.
