Lineups Courtesy of Mark Sheldon...hopefully fewer typos.



Tuesday's Reds lineup vs. Mets:

Stubbs 8
Phillips 4
Votto 3
Rolen 5
Bruce 9
Cabrera 6
Nix 7
Hanigan 2
Arroyo 1

Question of the day -- Who is your preference at Reds catcher -- Ramon Hernandez or Ryan Hanigan? Hanigan is generally Arroyo's battery-mate, but he's also catching others like Harang and Bailey. Hernandez has done well with Mike Leake. Pitchers have a 4.58 ERA with Hanigan -- it's 5.73 with Hernandez.

Hanigan enters tonight batting .389 with 10 RBIs. Hernandez is hitting .245 with four RBIs but has come on stronger of late.

Nix getting a lot of PT since Dickerson went on the DL.It sure would be a good time for him to get hot.I'd much rather see him playing against RHP then Gomes especially when defense has to be considered.Personally I'm sick of Jonny.

Will Janish ever play again?

Janish...2 starts at short. Two.

The 2 he started at third for Rolen still puzzles me. Why not Janish at short and Cabrera at third? Whatever.

Neither Nix or Gomes are hitting...I'll go with the defender if I must pick between those two.

Probably because Janish has the better arm.

Pagan with a pop bunt to RF for a hit. I thought of Furcal when I saw that, as he did that against us last year in LA, then Welsh brings that up. Nice job Welsh.

Mets nickel and diming Arroyo. 1st and 3rd with no outs after a bunt hit and a soft hit and run single.

Did Welsh just say what I think he said? :D

#edit, I ran it back and he sure did say a little 4 letter word.

Bunt single to RF, soft ground ball just past Phillips, and soft groundball to CF just past Cabrera put up a run for NY.

Weakest earned run I've seen in a while. But they all count the same.

Good to see Bronson keep his composure and retire Bay and Wright rather easily.

BP with a rally killer. You don't hit home runs in front of the #3 hitter!

Drop him to 9.

Listening to the Mets broadcasters. They were talking about how the ball to Cabrera could have been a DP if he had more range.

Arroyo should actually feel fortunate Davis only singled there. That 3-2 changeup was on a tee right down the middle.

Goodness, Nix. That pitch was a foot outside. You don't need to try to homer every time up.

Awesome baserunning (it's great to say that and not be sarcastic).

Wow, what a huge break for the Reds with Arroyo on deck.

2-1.

Funny how baseball works.

When I saw Bruce going to 3rd with 2 outs and the pitcher on deck, I thought "wow, what a dumb baserunning move."

Then when Francouer threw it in the dugout I thought, "what a dumb move to throw it with the pitcher coming up."

Maybe I'm just dumb.

This inning consisted of Arroyo and Votto throwing the ball back and forth to each other for a 1-2-3 inning.

Posing again?

Votto's fly out on gameday was in the stands....was it caught at the fence?

Why didn't Phillips tag on Votto's fly and move to third?? Plenty of time, outfielder running back on the play...

With 1 out, you have to make sure you score if that ball drops.

Not necessarily posing but jogging out of the box like it was a routine fly.

It was pretty darn clear that was going to be caught, it was very high, and very deep. I've seen lots of players tag and take third on very similiar flies.

Wright ties up the game.

Screwball

David Wright hit that about 974 feet.

BTW, Trivia Question answer is Reyes. He hit for the cycle against the Reds back in '06 I believe.

Screwball
05-04-2010, 08:15 PM
I think if I was John Maine, every single pitch I threw to a Reds lefty would be the fastball up and out of the zone. The Reds have swung and missed at it every time.

Man, we normally don't get tumbleweeds in game threads until August.

Mets get 2 in the top of the 6th to take the lead 4-2.

Yeah, it's one thing if Carpenter shuts you down. It's another story if John Maine and his freaking 90 mph fastballs dominate you.

I don't mind it. No problem with burning one pitcher to the point of needing a day off. Just don't burn the top three and be left in a spot like Sunday in STL. Masset or Sir Arthur can close tomorrow if needed.

We were downtown last night seeing the skating show at US Bank Arena and we came out of there just in time to catch Joey and Scott's HRs. We heard the cheering for Joey's HR when we first came out and I had a feeling that he had hit that HR because Rolen was up to bat next and I knew they were still batting back to back in the lineup. As we were trying to find out the score, we heard the cheers for Rolen's HR and found out the game was tied in the 8th inning. As we were walking to my car, we heard cheers go up again and thought we had taken the lead but I found out about the review later on and knew the second round of cheers had to be related to that moment. That was kind of fun to be down there and hear when those things happened but not actually be at the game to really see them, LOL :laugh:
