Interesting lineups in matchup of LHPs. Barnhart, who catches Miley, only lefty hitter other than pitcher. Votto out against Kershaw. Barrero in CF to get another RH bat in the lineup. No DeShields. Cards with Pujois against Reds’ lefty, hitting cleanup.

Barrero/Friedl platoon in CF, my Bingo card is complete.
At this point they have to do that. DeSheilds is nothing more than a pinch runner/defensive replacement.Originally Posted by Mitri

Got my monkey paw wish granted on more Barrero in the lineup

What does Friedl project to be? 4A, Major league bench fringe ztarter/platoon player or a starter?
REDREAD (09-19-2021)
Hopefully a solid bench player, he doesn’t have much pop but he’s got speed.
“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”

Like clockwork, Friedl homers...LOL.
Good luck today….too much to get done
Must win today, hope for a Cardinals' loss, and then win three against Pittsburgh to have any reasonable hope of getting back in this thing.

Really an uphill battle now with Winker apparently gone for the season. Have to hope for the best and a miracle or three.
This is really a patchwork lineup. But you have to do those things when you have injuries and a black hole at third base.

If it's a must win then you will be disappointed
What's up Doc? Yes, you're probably right. With the Cards on the verge of putting us four back in the loss column with 12 to go, this one today feels like a must win. A must win game against Kershaw. Daunting. Bell has to treat this one like a one game WC.
Tough to win with reds hitters having holes in their bats. Suarez actually most times swings like he doesn’t even have a bat in his hands. He broke the Mendoza line for playing a full season. For those who don’t know what the Mendoza line is he was a shortstop who played in the 70’s and his career batting average was approx. 200. Since then no one has approached his batting average until Suarez came along and actually shattered Mendozza’s record. imagine how far ahead of the Cardinals the Reds would be if Suarez even had one half of what he usually hits. I am not even going into his fielding because that has been so terrible this year. Sad sad way to end the season.
And Castillo has proven to be a dud having the most losses in the majors this year. If he even had a 500 record Reds would be ahead of the Cardinals.
