I vote for making this game up in 13 days or whenever Moustakas and Senzel are healthy.

If I were grand poobah of the Reds:

Vs RHP

Shogo RF
Votto 1B
Suarez 3B
Moose 2B
Castellanos LF
Winker DH
Senzel CF
Barnhart C
Galvis SS

Against LHP

Senzel DH
Votto 1B
Suarez 3B
Castellanos LF
Moose 2B
Shogo CF
Aquino RF
Casali C
Galvis (Sometimes Farmer) SS

VanMeter and Ervin are the primary PH. Nobody else need play much. That's still 14 guys with defined roles. Probably still too many.

The only question I have is Senzel at DH.

He’s likely your best fielding regular OF, and having him at DH means you can’t use him in the field.

Problem is we might have several more players out in two weeks than we do now.

it wasn't a mistake. we'll still have shogo after bell is gone next year. i bet the new manager will love shogo.

I admire the optimism. It's just that I remember Bryan Price flailing away for most of a decade or two.

even if bell is back in 2021, no way he will be here in 2022, imo. and if he is still here in 2022, that would mean the reds would have had a good 2021 season, so i wouldn't be broken up about it.

the reds knew they had no chance to win from 2015-18. that's why they gave price so much rope imo. bell has the reds team with by far the biggest payroll in club history. if he doesn't win by next year, he's gone.

heavy stuff has already gone through and rain should stop before 9. LFG.

That's because Castellanos seems determined to improve his defense and I give him the chance to see if it boosts his whole game. Otherwise, Senzel in CF, Shogo in LF and Castellanos at DH.

any announced expectation on the broadcast? Do not get anything on MLB TV until game actually starts.

My point was that Senzel is the last guy I would use as DH, as he’s likely needed in the field at some stage.

Nah. They got Jankowski. What else could you ask for.

Most of a decade or two? Wasn’t Price Manager 3.5 years?
