glad they are starting Senzel on Day 1.

Dusty Baker always had that philosophy of "Call a player up. Sit them the first game"

I never understood that.

I can. A lot of the time they came up that day. They have to get their stuff together, get oriented to which city they are in, find their way around, get tickets for friends and family among other things and their head isn't necessarily into the game. Plus they are all keyed up because it's their big league debut. Senzel has had the luxury knowing he'd be up here since Tuesday or Wednesday. Odds are he's already been in town and got settled.

I do remember last year when Blandino got called up. A friend of mine on Facebook was all excited and thought he'd be in the lineup the first day. I told her he'd sit for sure and sure enough he did. She wasn't very happy with me. :lol:

Need to score against Beede, a career 4.1ERA 1.4 WHIP guy in the minors with almost no big league experience.....course that prol means he shuts us out for 7 IP.

Are Peraza and Suarez hurt?

I'm glad to see Senzel up but I think Bell and his analytics have gone a little off the rails... Votto was 2-14 against Synregard so he sat, but the upside of Votto is he is better than the guy who played instead and has more potential to do something - with the data, the Reds scored 0 runs. Same thing tonight, no matter what, I think the Reds are better with Peraza and Suarez rather than the bench guys. I hope they prove me wrong but that's just what I think.

Suarez has to be sitting for rest. If it’s for any other reason then Bell should be fired. I’d like to see Peraza playing as well but you can make a case for the others at the moment. We really need a strong series here

I'm starting to think Bell makes his lineup by tossing names into his hat and selecting players with a blindfold on.. Perhaps we should demand to know why Gray isn't hitting cleanup.. I certainly wouldn't be shocked if he did.

I don’t think that many managers do that. I think Bell is too “new school” in the sense that he over relies on “load management “ as it’s called in the NBA and analytics.

You obviously missed the fact the Senzel wore down the pitcher during that 9 pitch AB, who proceeded to give up a single, single, Home Run.

Senzel is solely responsible for sparking the Reds offence, and no one can argue any different.

The Reds have to find a way to get Dietrich's bat into the lineup more. Don't particularly care how they do it, just do it. Ride the hot hand

Starting 2B, till he cools off, even when Scooter comes back.

Dietrich is the oiliest late 80s/early 90s dude I’ve ever seen. He looks like he’s about to jump into a tiny white truck and blast his Van Halen tape all the way to the dive bar.

And it's awesome.

To me he is pure Ohio Man. Scooter may be from Cincy, but with where he grew up and his appearance/demeanor, he’s a Florida Man. Dietrich is Ohio.

Bell does like to alternate his LHHs and RHHs.

That gives me the slightest hope that, with Senzel replacing Schebler, he'll be forced to start Dietrich over Peraza at 2B.

Otherwise he's down to 2 LHH and the SH Barnhart.

Yet it wouldn't surprise me at all if he stays with the 0.519 OPS guy.
