August 27, 201016 yr I think I would've hit Bruce second hoping that he'd get more fastballs in front of Votto, but with Phillips out of the lineup that's about as good as you're going to do.
August 27, 201016 yr Author Only question I have is why not Heisey in RF leading off with the Cubs throwing a lefty. Phillips is obviously not ready, and I'm looking forward to seeing Valaika get 4 AB or so
August 27, 201016 yr Only question I have is why not Heisey in RF leading off with the Cubs throwing a lefty. Phillips is obviously not ready, and I'm looking forward to seeing Valaika get 4 AB or so. Have you not seen Heisey lately? He couldn't hit water if he fell out of a boat...2-29 with 2 RBI since the Pittsburgh series.
August 27, 201016 yr Not a bad lineup other than the leadoff position. Rather have Heisey in LF leading off and Bruce in RF hitting 5th.
August 27, 201016 yr Have you not seen Heisey lately? He couldn't hit water if he fell out of a boat...2-29 with 2 RBI since the Pittsburgh series. Neither can Gomes. Except Gomes's case is he hasn't been able to hit most of this season excluding about 7 weeks.

August 27, 201016 yr Neither can Gomes. Except except Gomes's case is he hasn't been able to hit most of this season excluding about 7 weeks. As bad as Gomes has been, Heisey's been worse lately...I thought you all were all about giving them the best chance to win...
August 27, 201016 yr Come on Big Snack, I ask who's playing 2nd, you tell me Phillips. Where's your source? Sorry, just sorry!
August 27, 201016 yr Gomes's sample size has been basically all season. We see what he does which is nothing. You are judging Heisey on less then 30 at bats which is a very very very small sample size IMO. Still think he deserves a shot at lead off tonight and start in LF. That's all I'm trying to say.
August 27, 201016 yr Gomes should play against lefties ... it's the normal people that give him trouble.
August 27, 201016 yr Author Bruce also is hitting .286 with a HR off Gorzelanny in his career. That would answer my question. That wasn't so hard was it?
