4/4/14 - Reds vs. Los Mets de Nueva York

I'll update this once lineups are released. To be honest, I just wanted to start this thread now so I could use this picture of Sam LeCure in New York buying a box of cannolis.



And no Hamilton or Cozart:

Bernadina 8
Phillips 4
Votto 3
Bruce 9
Ludwick 7
Frazier 5
Pena 2
Santiago 6
Leake 1

[Tom Servo]

The B+ squad lineup helps reaffirm my decision to skip tonight's likely rain-filled contest. I'll be there tomorrow though.

[Z-Fly]

Hamilton must be tired from stealing 2nd base six times yesterday in the 8th, while BP kept fouling off pitches.

[cumberlandreds]

I think I would bat Leake 7th in this lineup.

So those are for Chapman, I'm guessing. Where are the ones for the rest of the pen?

Hamilton doesn't collect a hit before his first day off

[NeilHamburger]

I would feel a lot better about this series if the Mets had went 1-2 instead of 0-3 to start the year. I hate playing teams coming off a sweep. It just always seems like things even out.

Imagine if Dusty sat Billy after 3 games.

This place would be tearing him apart.

Or if he used the 4 worst bullpen pitchers on the staff over LeCure.

For the lineup Dusty had a track record of irritating people with lineup choices. Price is still new the complaining will start soon enough I'm sure.

For LeCure, does anyone know for sure if he is healthy or not? Seemed obvious to use him a couple times yesterday.

Someone smarter than me can answer this question: can Chris Heisey play centerfield?

He just seems like a more obvious choice in the outfield than Bernandina if they're gonna give Billy a night off.

Yeah Heisey can play CF but I think Price is just trying to get everyone a start. I'm not a huge fan of it but whatever.

And so the Legend of Bernadina begins.

Let it go, man - Dusty is gone. Are you going to say "Imagine if Dusty..." all season?

I will question this decision though, I think this is a mistake sitting Billy today.

I wouldn't have sat Billy tonight.
He should have used LaCure yesterday.

The first question is would Dusty have been torn apart for doing those thing in his 4th major league game managing? If yes then those ripping him would be idiots.

2014 would you rather have Dusty managing here and Price managing someplace else?
