Why not sit Aquino. Put Pham in the outfield and make Moose DH and let Lopez play 3rd or 2b with Drury covering one of those positions Lopez isn't?

Remember when we thought the lineup would be better not having Suarez, Barnhart, P at the bottom?

Another lefty we face? Whats the over under on Reds runs tonight?

I’ll take the under even if it’s 0.5

Sit Moose too and let Garcia catch or DH with Stephenson in the other spot.

Moose couldn't hit lefty pitching even when he was going good. If the idea is to get him going, playing against a LHP isn't the way.

I really don’t understand this lineup. Did Bell’s wife cheat on him with Lopez? I get it’s a lefty, but Aquino is getting over exposed. Starting Pham in left, Lopez at 2b, Drury at 3b and Garcia at C/DH isn’t a tough call at this point.

Aquino stinks but I think despite some excitement over his hot run Lopez has pretty much maxed out his skill set at this level, he's just a bench bat and possibly not even a good one.

@nightengalejr

Reds have not made a final decision on whether Jonathan India will be on the IL. He’ll be evaluated after pregame drills.

David Bell said India won’t start any games before Friday if he remains off the IL, could be available off bench. If he’s put on IL, he can return Tuesday.

Nick Senzel is back with the Reds after a bout with the stomach flu. He’s expected to be activated from the IL tomorrow.

I still contend that a injury free reds offense can be at least league average. But looking like they may never get the 13 guys that figured to be on the opening day roster all together at the same time.

Castellanos was a leader - however you want to define that term - in the clubhouse. And for the franchise, really. They miss him dearly. they should have rushed to sign that contract. Then, they compounded it by dealing two more of their bigger personalities/leaders in Winker and Suarez. When I look at the team as currently constituted, it is desperately missing a spark in the clubhouse (on top of the more tangible things it is missing). I think Gray was apparently similar for the pitching staff. It wasn't just the gutting of the team that was so haphhazard, it was how brutal the losses were on and off the field.

The Reds managed 57 hits in their first 10 games this year--exactly half of what the champion 1990 Reds had (114).

He’s been like that for three or four games. He was talking over the weekend about how many cough drops a person could eat.

at the time, it was reported our pick was a decision between Lodolo and Manoah.....I was not just looking at picks after ours that turned out well. They were very close, but most of the national voices had Lodolo slightly higher, but I thought Manoah surpassed him their final year in college. Manoah got called up last year and was pretty damn good....and has continued to be excellent this season.

He probably needs more time in the minors, but I don’t think they’ll send him.

When Minor and Castillo both return, however, there will be some big decisions to be made.

There is no point in having Minor, but he’ll pitch when he’s healthy. Paying him too much.

Greene should be etched in stone. As are Mahle, Gutierrez and Luis.

So it’s Castillo/Mahle/Minor/Gutierrez/Greene, most likely, which probably means AAA for Nick.
