September 4, 201115 yr Author Now that Lewis is gone, Alonso is the left handed hitting LF. Which is basically what I just said. I'm sure Dusty would have rather had Lewis still. I'm sure that was Walt's move. Hence telling Dusty to get Alonso in the game.
September 4, 201115 yr Franciso certainly didn't look like Brandon Larson today.Or Friday when he went out the front door to ice that one.

September 5, 201115 yr ^Doubtful he'll ever be anything more to the Reds than E5 was.You're probably right, I hope he is at the very least trade bait.
September 5, 201115 yr Alonso misplayed a ball that ended up costing the Reds 2 runs. However the wind is blowing in at like 20-30 MPH at Wrigley. Pretty difficult for anyone let alone someone with the lack of experience he has in LF.

Pretty difficult for anyone let alone someone with the lack of experience he has in LF. I was listening to the game at the time. Marty didn't get too upset about it. He said he was up against the wall and the ball just went over his head.
September 5, 201115 yr Larson's minor league stats look to be similiar with Juan Francisco's. Personally, I don't think Juan Francisco has a future in the big leagues either. Alonso has a much better eye than either of those and just more talent in general offensively. Comparing Brandon Larson's ability to Jay Bruce's is laughable... Which is why I didn't compare them.
