Games are won on run differential -- scoring more than your opponent. Runs are runs, scored or prevented they all count the same. Worry about scoring more and allowing fewer, not which positions contribute to which side of the equation or how "consistent" you are at your current level of performance.
Ugly first.
Championships for MY teams in my lifetime:
Cincinnati Reds - 75, 76, 90
Chicago Blackhawks - 10, 13, 15
University of Kentucky - 78, 96, 98, 12
Chicago Bulls - 91, 92, 93, 96, 97, 98

Hopefully the ump is consistent with his strike zone for the Reds At Bat.

If you're Arroyo, you simply can not afford to let a righthander take you deep.

This starting lineup and the top of the 1st have basically undone any good feelings I had about the team from the first 6 games.
This lineup just shows that Dusty hasn't changed. He will always revert to his old ways, and that means ruining young arms.
Castro batting second. There is no curse in Elvish, Entish or the tongues of Men bad enough for such treachery. (Yes, I am a dork.)
Freel doubles to start the 1st
