Here's tonights lineup. None of the new call ups are in there. I have feeling we ain't going to see much of them this month. They are just here in spirit.
1. Billy Hamilton (S) CF
2. Todd Frazier (R) 1B
3. Brandon Phillips (R) 2B
4. Devin Mesoraco (R) C
5. Jay Bruce (L) RF
6. Chris Heisey (R) LF
7. Brayan Pena (S) DH
8. Kristopher Negron (R) 3B
9. Ramon Santiago (S) SS
Completely logical.......NOT!Quote:

Phillips hitting third. Either he had a very successful off day, or somebody isn't watching.
Well I think the logical argument would be that they wan to give the call-ups a day at least to adjust to the surroundings without being thrown into the fire all at once.Quote:

But I'd bat him 7th for a series and then watch him tear it up because his ego is hurting. (Or I'd like to see it tried to see if I'm right lol)
One of my wishes for 2015 is that the Reds' offense is so potent and healthy that Phillips has to hit seventh.Quote:

Phillips has good career numbers vs. Norris. Not that that should matter but in Price's mind I'm sure it does.
I have noticed that Price knows when one of his players hits well off of a pitcher....but also feel coaches need to go with their gut some.Quote:

Any news in the weather? CTrent tweeted the tarp was on and it's raining.
7:25 start
wow... 3 guys hurt during a single play
an oriole, umpire and a red... hope everyone is fine
Who was hurt?
Nobody, but the ump took the rest of the night off...
Is this real? Lol
Shin burger
BHam collides with ump in wrong place
Ump gets up before Billy
Ump leaves game
Billy SB #55
Rain Delay
Can't get tarp on and grounds crew guys are completely exhausted.
All in 8 minutes
Welsh needs to lay off the grounds crew....he's going too far
No clue why they started....radar clearly shows a sizable storm within 15 miles
It'll be 8:45 I bet before they resume
I've seen tarp struggles like this lately. Maybe they could have a couple of ATVs ready to hook up to the edge of the tarp and help pull.
You're kidding right...lolQuote:

Giancarlo Stanton just hit one about a mile.
Not to mention the pulse in his shinQuote:

Brewers trail Cubs 4-0, two errors by SS, things not going well for Brew Crew.
Castro looked to blow up his ankle sliding home on Soler's RBI (now batting .550)Quote:

Those plays from Datdude were awesome. I don't know if he is the best fielding second baseman ever, but he is the best I can remember!
And Welsh starts off by saying "just a great job by the grounds crew" lol
Live by the run and die by the run.
Pathetic offensive baseball by the Reds in that half inning. Just awful. Can't get the runner to third. Caught stealing. Pop up by BP.
Just typical, Kc. All year.
Billy shouldn't be running on a muddy field. And Frazier is a terrible situational hitter.
That might've been his worst jump of the year....it was terrible and his judgement to go anyways was just bad.Quote:
