May 11, 200818 yr Author Showcasing for a trade. Didn't want rookie Votto playing 3 games in 24 hours. Threre's two... That's zero. I said one good reason. Hatte doesn't need to be showcased. Teams know exactly what their going to get out of Hatte. Yeah 3 games in 24 hours has to be an absolute grind for young 24 year old Votto, especially after playing no games the previous 48 hours. Meanwhile your 37 year old RF has no trouble playing 3 games in 24 hours after being sick the day before. Gotcha.
May 11, 200818 yr Hatteberg is a known commodity, and any team that looks at his home-road numbers the last two years isn't going to give the Reds anything of value for him. Face it, guys ... Dusty likes those "proven veterans" ...
May 11, 200818 yr Author Well at least Arroyo gave them one good inning. Good job by Bronson to get out of that inning unscathed.

May 11, 200818 yr Author Can we revisit tomorrow when Junior is on the bench??? Even if Jr. is on the bench, it still doesn't warrant sitting Votto. And you know it.
May 11, 200818 yr Even if Jr. is on the bench, it still doesn't warrant sitting Votto. And you know it. Are you ticked BP is sitting???
May 11, 200818 yr Author Are you ticked BP is sitting??? BP has been nursing a calf injury, and it looked like he may have tweaked it on the triple in the 1st game.
May 11, 200818 yr Author I'm going with Frank Robinson on the Aflac answer. Thank you, thank you very much. You guys can sit down now.
May 11, 200818 yr Meanwhile your 37 year old RF has no trouble playing 3 games in 24 hours after being sick the day before. Gotcha. That 37 year old is 2/3 with an RBI..
May 11, 200818 yr Author That 37 year old is 2/3 with an RBI.. What's your point? You need to go back, reread the thread, and follow along a little better. I have no problem with Griffey Jr. playing. My point is if Jr. can play 3 games in 24 hours, then it wouldn't be a problem for Votto.

My point is if Jr. can play 3 games in 24 hours, then it wouldn't be a problem for Votto. I read the thread and threw my point out there.. Griff is a vet and use to the games, and the Reds can deal with Griff getting hurt a little more than they can with Votto.. Baker obviously wants him to have the full day off. I can't blame him.
