BP 4
Heisey 9
Votto 3
Gomes 7
Francisco 5
Razor 2
Stubbs 8
Janish 6
Harang 1
Interesting that JF gets the start at 3rd. Cairo's leg must still be bothering him. Not an ideal lineup vs Jimenez, but I will say it's good to see Janish still getting some starts w/ O-Cab back!
We're off to the game! Go Reds!
Gonna say that this is the "Use the piching mismatch as an opportunity to rest some of our more vulnerable starters" lineup.
And I bet you we still pull off the WQuote:

Nice move from Baker.
Defensively, Janish makes sense with Francisco at third base. A bit more range at SS without Rolen in the lineup.
Wow. Had no idea it was an afternoon game. Thought it was 9 o'clock.

With what we have today, I'd bat JF 4th, and Gomes 5th.

And 2 in a row for OCab since coming back so taking a seat makes some sense.Quote:

Gomes in the lineup?Quote:

The alternatives were Franciso, Alonso and Cairo.
Gomes is a GG winner compared to them.
I can live with this lineup today.
The only change I'd make is Hannigan catching Harang instead of Hernandez. Call me crazy but it seems Harang pitches better with Hannigan behind the plate.
Seems like most of these guys do better with Hanigan,Quote:

What's the Reds record against Colorado this year?
2-1Quote:

I know this is probally a dumb question but is there anyway to listen to the game other than with the MLB package?
According to this, 950 AM is the Reds on Radio Indianapolis affiliate. Meaning, I believe, you should hear the 700 broadcast there.Quote:

Welsh and Brantley calling this series on the TV side.
I might have to leave the TV unmuted for this oneQuote:

Why attempt a bunt in this park?

Votto fans.
Votto strikes out swinging. 10 pitch inning. 0-0 mid 1st.
Welsh's PBP- not great, but not horrid.

Why do it at GABP for that matter? Unless its Wood or Leake or maybe Stubbs, Cabrera or Janish, no reason to bunt for a hit IMO.Quote:

I worry more for that wall than I do Gomes
Considering our lack of OF depth...I'd prefer a bit of caution right now.Quote:

Thanks for the PBP.
We're showing the D so far
