I think the age of the traditional leadoff hitter is long gone.

He gets on base.Originally Posted by Kilgore_Trout
Lifetime .397/.511/.908 vs. RH pitchers. I want him hitting as often as possible before the starter leaves the game and gets replaced possibly by a lefty.
You bat him 6th and perhaps he misses out on an AB as the starter may be gone.

Cubs are batting Bryant at leadoff so I'd say this is correct. This would have never happened 10-15 years ago.
this is correct.

The #Reds today recalled OF Aristides Aquino and RHP Tejay Antone, placed on the 3-day paternity list C Tucker Barnhart and placed on the 10-day IL IF Matt Davidson (tested positive for COVID-19).
When he appears in a game, Antone will be making his Major League debut.
5:10pm is such a weird start time....welp gonna have to eat dinner in from of the big screen. Wife will just have to deal with it sorry.

I’ll go with DocRed’s argument from an earlier post. Winker kills Nova so tonight he hits leadoff.
Generally, Winker gets on base but so does Shogo, who has better speed. I’m guessing normally we’ll see Shogo leading off against RHP.
Not a major deal either way.

Welp Reds Live is on....let's see what they say.
No he's not, baby....

This is the matchup I'm looking for today, Geno gets in on the offensive parade today.
“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”
Wow...you guys watching Reds pregame?? Castellanos was pissed last night for being taken out. He even went out and took extra practice after the game shagging balls in RF. Gotta love his fire
