May 11, 200818 yr Author Woulda, coulda, shoulda... You're right. He would have had 3 hits , and could have had 4 RBI, and Dusty should have played him. The FACT remains he is one of your best hitters, has been hitting the ball very well of late, and there is absoultely no reason to sit him.
May 11, 200818 yr My two cents ... I don't have a problem with Votto playing only one game of the doubleheader. That is the manager's prerogative. I notice that only four of the eight position starters in the first game are back in the lineup ... and of course, that could be due to the fact that the Reds faced a superhuman lefty in game one and a glorified rookie righty in game two. But if the reason they're playing Hatteberg is to "showcase him" for a potential trade ... it's a waste of time.

May 11, 200818 yr Author Now a .300 batting average is good, it's not 1.000. It still wouldn't be 1.000 if he went 3-3 in this game.
May 11, 200818 yr Author Great outing by Arroyo. He's at 101 pitches. I would think he's done. Let's hope Weathers and Cordero can get the job done.
May 11, 200818 yr Author Arroyo's at 101 pitches. Why is Dusty running him back out there? Weathers and Cordero are well rested. He could have pinch hit Votto, and tried to stretch the lead.
May 11, 200818 yr Author I wake up after a nap and see Arroyo pitches 8 strong innings. WOW! I will pay you to sleep more often during Reds games.
May 11, 200818 yr I will pay you to sleep more often during Reds games. I was awake in the 9th when the Reds got 281 infield hits, along with the Mets throwing the ball all over the place. So I think the Reds were going to win regardless. :lol:
