    Yep. Stubbs really isn't cut out to be a leadoff hitter; his OBP is a bit too low, and his power profiles better more in the middle of the order. Then again -- as has been harped on endlessly for two years -- the Reds lack a legitimate leadoff guy.

    I don't think he's taking them because he's a lead-off hitter, He's taking them because he gets fooled alot. Especially against RHP.
    All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!

    I remember when Dontrelle crushed a Jose Lima fastball into the stratosphere for a grand slam. It was a great moment in baseball.

    Drew Stubbs walks, Hernandez moves to second. Two on two out with Edgar at the plate.
