[ELCABALLO45]

Good inning for Narveson.

 

I also liked the mario bro. music after he struck out votto to end the inning 1-2-3.

[ELCABALLO45]

When does Macha and Melvin figure out that McGehee should not be batting 5th?

[davego]

Where should he hit?

[ELCABALLO45]

Actually in this line up I guess 5 is about right. Sad.

[crewcrazy]

McGehee apparently gets spiked, but luckily stays in the game. Counsell is still the only bench player that's really "available" -- have to wonder how long they can continue to walk the tightrope with such a limited roster. It really stinks that the trade deadline is Saturday, otherwise I think we would've seen Hart put on the DL already.

[RobDeer 45]

Any update on Hart's wrist?

[ELCABALLO45]

That a guy Braun! Come on Fielder lets keep this going

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Actually in this line up I guess 5 is about right. Sad.

The lineup is second in the NL in runs scored. They aren't the Yankees, but it isn't that bad of a lineup.

Thought about this as well the other day. If it was not the deadline Satruday, Hart is on the DL I think.

 

 

[GormanHarvey]

Macha said on the pre game show that it looks likely for Hart to be ready to go Friday. I really don't see how it would be a DL situation

THIS current line up is not 2nd in the NL in runs scored. Since April, McGehee has OPS'd around .743.

 

 

 

[ELCABALLO45]

Ouch, Carlos ripped the ball right on the screws and Jay Bruce robbed him with a diving catch. Good to get 2 that inning tho.

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Granted, Hart is not in the lineup. However, who would you move up? That OPS is still better than Escobar, Gomez & Lucroy. Hart fits well at #2. It would be nice to move Rickie to #5, but I'm not sure Escobar or Gomez are ready to move up to the leadoff spot. Maybe Edmonds could bat fifth when healthy, but that's unlikely before year end. McGehee is probably a middle of the pack 3B, but I don't see a materially better choice hitting 5th or that the lineup is not one of the better ones in the NL.

 

edit: Add ending

[ELCABALLO45]

I would rather have Hart hitting 5th. Fielder is getting nothing to hit with runners in scoring position with McGehee behind him. Happened again today where they pitched around Fielder to get to McGehee.

[davego]

I hate 13 pitchers on a team.

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Maybe Gallardo should bat fifth when he starts.

 

I hear what your saying, I'm just a little reluctant to move Gomez or Escobar up into the 2 spot at this point. Hart has been killing it at #2 as well. He can use his speed a little too. If he was behind Prince on the basepaths he might wind up lapping him.

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Loe already up...with a day off tomorrow, Macha likely to have a short leash with Narv-dog. He's got a fresh Loe, Ax & Villy plus Coffey only went 1/3 last night.

[ELCABALLO45]

Reds broadcasters (Thom Brennaman) mentioned something pretty funny a couple innings ago.

 

Joe Inglett went 0-5 with 3k at the plate. And threw a scoreless/hitless inning

 

Yovanni Gallardo gave up 10 hits in 2.2 innings and hit a 3 run home run.

[BrewCrewForever]

All of these starts for Inglett are making me sick. Sure wish Cain was up, he would be playing since Hart and Edmonds are both hobbled.

[Paulus88]

Stop giving up doubles!!

[BrewCrewForever]

And for the first time Kameron Loe looked human.

 

Come on Coffey, let’s get out of this without any more damage.

[trwi7]

Sure wish Cain was up, he would be playing since Hart and Edmonds are both hobbled.

 

I'm not convinced he would be.
