April 29, 200917 yr Hernandez is an above average hitting catcher. Especially for Reds standards. I still like that trade a lot.
April 29, 200917 yr The Reds future 3rd baseman nearly hit for the cycle yesterday afternoon. Sevierville, TN --- Juan Francisco fell a double shy of the cycle, while James Avery worked eight innings en route to his first win as Carolina took its second straight from Tennessee 7-5 at Smokies Park on Tuesday afternoon. http://web.minorleaguebaseball.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20090429&content_id=573106&vkey=news_t249&fext=.jsp&sid=t249
April 29, 200917 yr The way the reds are hitting I don't see why Dusty won't play Nix in left field some. He is hitting the ball hard about every time he bats. I have my opinion but what do you guys think is the reason?
April 29, 200917 yr Volquez going tonight for the Reds. In his four starts, he has walked 4, 4, 5, and 7. What do the Reds do if he continues this tonight?
April 29, 200917 yr Author The way the reds are hitting I don't see why Dusty won't play Nix in left field some. He is hitting the ball hard about every time he bats. I have my opinion but what do you guys think is the reason? They talked about that during the game last night. I agree, I think he is had looked pretty good in the limited number of AB's he has been given. I think Dusty became a big fan of Dickerson the last two months of last season, and wants to give him every chance to succeed.

April 29, 200917 yr Bring back Mario Soto for a month. I would be fine with giving him the PC job full time, not a big Pole fan.

I think Dusty became a big fan of Dickerson the last two months of last season, and wants to give him every chance to succeed. Bring back Mario Soto for a month. I agree on both counts. I would give Nix a few more games and it certainly couldn't hurt to bring Soto back in--it really seemed to help last year.

April 29, 200917 yr Author Taveras CF Hairston 2B Votto 1B Bruce RF Hernandez C Nix LF Rosales 3B Gonzalez SS Volquez P I realize Phillips needed a day off, but last night was the best he's looked in a long time. Aren't the Reds off tomorrow?
April 29, 200917 yr Author If Rosales homers tonight, we'll have to buy LRCW a sedative ... :lol: :laugh::laugh::laugh:
April 29, 200917 yr I realize Phillips needed a day off, but last night was the best he's looked in a long time. Aren't the Reds off tomorrow? Yes they are, he now gets two days off.
April 29, 200917 yr Taveras CF Hairston 2B Votto 1B Bruce RF Hernandez C Nix LF Rosales 3B Gonzalez SS Volquez P I like this lineup. I think this is the type of lineup they should keep using, and just put Phillips in there in the two hole where Hairston is today.
