    They’re just juggling the lineup to get people playing time instead of putting the best 8 out there. Yesterday the choice was a lefty Shogo or a Lefty Winker. Today it’s a righty Suarez or a righty India. I would have gone the opposite on both decisions. I get resting players but when you’re as far out as we are you can’t do it. We have a lot of off days left and some bad teams. Rest some guys against the bad teams.

    8-11-21 Reds @ Braves 7:20pm

    Braves Games played 113

    Starts by:

    1B Freeman 112
    2B Albies 111
    SS Swanson 113
    3B Riley 112

    No way they’ll win tonight….too gassed.

    Sitting India is dumb. Farmer has been banged up forever but he plays SS so no need for rest I guess.

    I hate India sitting….hate it.

    David Bell is from the Dusty school, no worries, there is always tomorrow (and there is great golf to play in mid to late October when you are home). India is a young man, no need to rest him. Outside of his paycheck, there is no reason Suarez is even on the MLB roster at this point.

    Are we sure India isn't a little banged up?

    Need Miley to be the stopper and the bats to wake up against a middling RH starter

    Farmer and India are way overdue for a day off. Now that Moose is back, it presents the opportunity to rest India.

    Reds’ last off day was August 2. Their next off day is August 23. That’s pushing things for both middle infielders.

    As soon as Senzel is back I expect an off day for Farmer as well. Correct decisions IMO.

    India's a rookie who's been playing a ton and there's still 12 days to go until the next off day. I get resting him against a righty.

    I would've hit Farmer 5th though, not leadoff. That I don't understand. He's been hitting well yes, but he still shouldn't be getting more at-bats than Winker, Cast, Votto or Moose.

    He’s been a little banged up for a good long while and played everyday without negative effects. If he’s banged up or needs a day off then I obviously have no issue….but this guy gets drilled every other game, spiked….and always gets up and finishes game without a problem. I used to this guy finding a reason to fight for Reds wins with his play and I expect to see him in there today because it’s hard to imagine him being hurt.

    Didn’t Bell put Suarez at lead off before he had India there? I wouldn’t have Farmer there either but he is leading the NL in hits since ASB.

    India hasn't had a day off that I can remember in a long time. Give Bell a break, it's not like he replaced India with Blandino

    Replace Garrett with Blandino and you won't be worse off.

    If India is banged up or hurt or said he needs a day off I’m 100% on board….if not I’m 100% against it.

    I’m a pretty positive poster but some things bug me pretty good. I’ll root for the Reds like the other 161 games. I expect a win.

    I won’t say another word about it.

    My thing is this, if Bell goes to Wilson over Garrett, and he doesn't pitch well, it's gonna be Bell fault. Or Doolittle. Or Hembree. The minute he goes to a pitcher not named Cessa, Givens, Lorenzen or Sims, he gonna be crucified. And trust me, I don't necessarily want to see those guys pitch anymore either, but they are on the roster. And until they are off of it, Bell will use them to a degree.
