July 12, 200719 yr This team has no clue....It really is laughable. From CTR... As for Moeller, it's a pretty easy move. That way he goes down when Bobby Livingston gets the call for Monday (that has not been announced, but that's what I'd expect). Lopez stays up with Castro out, and then the pitcher who gets called up goes down when Homer's ready to come back up. Really, it's not anything to get upset about. With Freel and Hopper already here, it's not like they needed another outfielder, they're heavy on the outfielders already. With Keppinger and Lopez already up, you have bats that can play in the infield (although, Lopez was hot the last month with the Bats, I'd still rather have Javy on the bench). Javy will be pinch hitting and you can switch for him at some time if you want now that you have a third catcher. Really, for a move like this, there's no reason to get your undies in a bunch, as it seems many of you have. It's for one series for a team that's already out of it. Seriously, settle down.
July 12, 200719 yr Hard to settle down when it seems like this team has no clue and no direction. Merely makes moves to make moves and continues to repeat the same process over and over. Thankfully I enjoy watching a train wreck as much as the next person and with my teams likely not making the playoffs either, I can enjoy watching this team continue the downward slide. THEY DON'T NEED MOELLER! Plenty of guys deserve a shot to at least get a few at bats, no need for a guy who won't be with the team anyway.
July 12, 200719 yr All I know is that the Reds better win tonight. and you guys should hope that the Braves win tomorrow!
July 12, 200719 yr Author Dickerson has never been up and Votto would have been the only other option. Not sure what else they could do with this move if they didn't add pitching... I don't know why I thought there was another OF up this year. Pretty bad when Chad Moeller is your best option from the minors.

July 12, 200719 yr You're in bad shape if you're hangin your hat on the lowly Reds Yeah I know it's bad if I'm hoping the Reds will win so it can help the Braves. OMG what have I became actually cheering for the Reds. :scared:

July 12, 200719 yr Why in the world would we bring Votto up at this point. Where is he going to get at bats? You going to sit Hatte yeah right. Gonna sit Connine aganist lefties no way. Moeller won't be up more than 3 games IMO.

Moeller won't be up more than 3 games IMO. Whats it going to hurt to sit either one. You hangin on to some kind of hope for this season? Who cares if Hatty or Conine sits. No way either one of those two are in the long term plans. When Votto is ready, he should come up and the other 2 shouldn't get daylight through a keyhole.
July 12, 200719 yr Cuz Hatty has been one of the hottest hitters in all of baseball. It's time for kick off.

One if not both of them are going to be gone in the next couple weeks anyways IMO. :thumb:

July 12, 200719 yr Votto's day will come and I have been saying for a while now I think he is ready but there is just no room for him right now but what do I know.
