Pierre's offensive value is basically his batting average ... if he hits .310-.320, he has some OBP value. If he hits .280 or so, as he usually does, the OBP isn't very good. Throw in the average defense, no power and terrible arm, and he's not a very good player.

His OBP is 100 higher thn what we have out of lead off and is cheap. I think it's a better option than calling up Hamlton. Any OBP over .300 at this point would be huge.

Well the Reds have scored their 1 run. What's the chances it will be enough tonight?

I hear the little kid was tearing the cover off the ball in batting practice.

At least Stubbs won't hit into a dp

 

Abort, abort

Stubbs BA last 32 at bats....

Looks like he is throwing whiffle ball.

Surprised Bronson hasn't been distracted by the lady in the long sleave white shirt in row 3 of their Diamond Seats, just to the 3rd base side of home plate.

Can't believe the Reds let Wells get away. He can flat out pitch. :lol:

So much for HIPPA
