LaRue seems OK to me to bat 2nd today. No one else in the lineup I would prefer batting 2nd. I'll put my stamp of approval on this lineup, for today anyway.

If they're trying to win, they should have Aurillia in instead of Olmedo.Quote:

I can see that but I certainly wouldn't want his .317 OBP hitting 2nd.Quote:

I still think the Reds will attain the .500 mark.
50 games left. Reds have to go 31-19 to get to .500 .Quote:

This has got to be the highest old Larue has hit in a game since his little league days.
