    This team will hit eventually. And they will make the playoffs.

    I think I’m third on the team in OBP. Not exactly an honor.

    Not really the point. He gets on base more than most of the team. You aren’t going to bat Winker leadoff. People keep saying to move him 6th. I don’t really see the point of that at all. At the end of the day, he still gets on base, why wouldn’t you lead him off?

    Man oh man...between Votto choking up to the barrel and mashing those fly balls to left field, to Davidson, Farmer, and Ervin, starting pitchers must flat out shake in their boots when they look down this great Reds lineup. So awesome. David Bell has to be described as nothing but a baseball genius. Love that guy.

    The 2 runs that Trevor Bauer has given up in his first 4 starts of 2020 have come on solo HR. The only starting pitcher (excluding openers) in at least the last 50 years to only give up runs on solo HR through his first 5 starts of the year was Tom Seaver in 1973 (5 R on 5 HR).[QUOTE]

    I don’t even like Bell, but what would your lineup be with this roster? Nobody is hitting except winker

    I hope youÂ’re right...

    Not with David Bell running the show.
    And not without Aquino starting in LF.

    Aquino being in Prasco is not Bell’s decision. The entire team not hitting is not on the manager. He can’t will them to hit.

    But Bell chose his buddy as the hitting coach. Name:  Screenshot_20200824-194531_Opera.jpg

    My wife and her children(also mine), are driving me crazy tonight. I am taking Big Klu's advice from the last game thread. I have escaped to my man cave with a bottle of Woodford Reserve. Win or lose, i am just going to relax and watch the game. If you guys could really ramp it up tonight with humorous posts, i would appreciate it.

    I’ve been saying for quite awhile nepotism is a big issue with this org and I also do not like Bell. I can’t blame Bell for Joey Votto and Suarez not hitting though, can’t blame Zinter for that either.

    His BA and OBP are demonstrably worse when batting leadoff.

    David Bell on Aristides Aquino: “A lot of times, as talented as a guy like Aquino is, there are ups and downs with that. He’s on his way back to getting to where he was, but there’s been a process to get him there.” #Reds

    Yeah...

    He has a bit to go before he hits the lofty heights of Josh VanMeter.
