nice to see rey rey in the lineup hopefully he can do some damage in the 8 hole
Re: 8/20 Game Thread - Reds vs. Dbacks
Narron's lineups are boring......nothing to complain about. :D
I guess the RA at 2nd spot can be 1 but it's not like he has been bad there.
I think people miss the days of wondering if a Reggie Taylor or Jason Romano would play for a "tired" Griffey.

I hate when the leadoff hitter swings at the first pitch.

I see Casey's back in the lineup tonight. Have to wonder if the reports that surfaced this week about his shoulder are true and being ignored or it's an excuse. Whatever the case, you do have to wonder what his health situation is.
Someone mention Olmedo doing damage. Since that little packet of time when he was hitting nearly 1.000, he's been clueless at the plate, so I doubt damage will be part of his game tonight. And playing Rey, a career bench player ahead of EdE is a crime. If anyone should be sitting it would be Rich. Of course, everyone in the FO thinks we need Rich. I think we need to get EdE as many at-bats as possible.
