April 29, 201511 yr Hate seeing Votto out of the lineup, but I guess you gotta give the guy a rest at some point. I guess if you're gonna rest him, resting him against the Brewers is a good choice. Would've liked to seen Boesch at 1st myself. But I guess it would help if he had experience at 1st, I could've swore they had plans of getting him reps there in spring but after some research it doesn't appear as if he got any just some chatter.
April 29, 201511 yr Its about next season for me. You have Leake and ????? Why not find out who else we will have pitching, who cares about a lowsy bullpen that we all know we have. We need to let some of these guys have starts and work towards future. No one on here can tell me who our 5 guys will be. We are losing Cueto and Bailey who knows. Cingranni has proven he can win games. He is a LEFTY only one we have
April 29, 201511 yr That's looks like an ugly lineup with Votto out. I think I read there hasn't been extra base hit out of the 4 hole all year. Ouch. With Parra going on DL, are they bringing up another pitcher? They already brought up Contreras yesterday.

Boesch did get some reps at 1st. I don't remember Negron playing 1st before.
April 29, 201511 yr Come on man. At least get his name right. Cingrani has proven he can't be a starter. He can't go deep enough into games because he has lousy control, and he has no secondary pitches. He's had how long to develop them, and he hasn't been able to. They are going with young pitchers. They have Desclafani, who's been lights out, Leake, Iglesias, and Lorenzen all lined up for next season. Assuming Bailey comes back healthy next season that's your starting five.
April 29, 201511 yr Fraizer can play first and Negron to third, that is what I thought they would do, even though Negron had an error at 3rd Sunday.

Cingranni has proven he can win games. He is a LEFTY only one we have You don't necessarily have Leake for next season. He's a free agent after this year as well.

That's assuming Leake signs with the Reds as well. He might like Cincinnati but when money gets thrown around things change. Jon Lester loved Boston...
April 29, 201511 yr That's assuming Leake signs with the Reds as well. He might like Cincinnati but when money gets thrown around things change. Jon Lester loved Boston... I just think with Bailey's uncertainty with health, they'll resign Leake. Something around 5 years, $60M possibly?
April 29, 201511 yr I just think with Bailey's uncertainty with health, they'll resign Leake. Something around 5 years, $60M possibly? Probably about right for a league average pitcher. Unless someone wants to overpay for him, which could always happen.
April 29, 201511 yr Boesch did get some reps at 1st. I don't remember Negron playing 1st before. Hmm, that's what I thought. I'd like him in there to replace Votto since he's a left handed bat.
April 29, 201511 yr Hmm, that's what I thought. I'd like him in there to replace Votto since he's a left handed bat. Garza has given up a higher batting average to RH hitters over his career. This season he's allowing a .333 BA to RHs vs a .255 BA to LHs.
April 29, 201511 yr Marlon Byrd: 19 games, 21 K's, Zero BBs. 478 plate appearances until his option vests for 2016...
April 29, 201511 yr Marlon Byrd: 19 games, 21 K's, Zero BBs. 478 plate appearances until his option vests for 2016... No chance they let him get to that point....September 1st call-up of Winker will take care of that IMO.
