    I'm pretty sure that's public knowledge

    Well, Lopez isn't hitting, and hasn't hit LH pitching all season.

    Freel has hit LH very well.EE is OK vs. LH pitching.

    What I can't understand is why you wouldn't slide Phillips to SS, put Freel at 2nd, leave EE at third, with Aurilia (who murders LH pitching) at first.

    Castro playing has to be because Narron doesn't want to mess up Phillips by moving him to SS. That leaves either Aurilia at SS (Nuff said) or...Castro.

    I'm not going tonight. I have to save my energy for the next two days.

    Life's too short to pay to see Milton pitch.

    Maybe Narron is as annoyed about EE's bad throw last night as I am.

    Actually probably just an effort to get both Freel and Aurilia in against lefty. I'm sure EE will be back tomorrow.

    I had a chance to see the Reds last Sunday; I was in town.

    Milton was going, so I passed up that chance in a hurry. I dislike being insulted.

    Why worry about the 25th man everyone says. Castro is just a late inning defensive replacement everyone says. This is 5 starts in 8 games. Thats way too much.

    And for those of you on the Lopez hasn't hit lefties all year, Castro is better defensively - - Milton is a fly ball pitcher so infield defense is less of a factor with him. And even with his struggles I'd rather have his bat in the lineup and batting near the bottom than Castro's bat 100 times out of 100 situations.

    My happiest day as a Reds fan since February 10, 2000 was a year and a half ago when the Twins signed Castro and i thought I'd never have to see him in a Reds uniform again. Boy, was I wrong.

    That's what it was supposed to be. I heard Krivsky say it.

    Krivsky doesn't manage the team, a man with crushes on veteran players (who aren't very good) does.

    Krivsky could have brought him here to be a late inning defensive replacement, doesn't mean Narron will use him like that.
