The irony is

the difference in this game has been a line-up decision probably made by Yost based on some stat crunching. Batting Kendall 9

kinda obvious how this one is playing out, right?

Reds steal Brewers' closer. First meeting of the new season, the Brewers' new closer blows it in the ninth. Karma, plus the fact that the new closer is Gagne, makes this seem probable.

It'd have to be, right

Hatteberg already came in as a (sigh) defensive replacement.

and...

the reds have their secret weapon of Josh Fogg tomorow. After seeing nothing but hard fastballs and breaking balls, Fogg will be great at 48 MPH.

But according to Chris Welsh,

after Cueto's 96 mph fastball, Fogg's 48 mph fastball will seem like 28. And you don't even want to know what that makes his changeup.

i guess im a little settled down now

hopper is a career .385/.421/.489 vs. lefties. It's only 149 plate appearances, but it is good. i guess my gut reaction of "Hopper for Votto? Noooooooooooo
is a little shortsighted

i still say too small sample size, especialy with bases loaded

how many of those were infield hits that become a force out w/ bases juiced

i was also not miffed by that move

but it did point up our problems with righty bats off the bench. G and C were seriously talking bunt with bases loaded, which is kinda sad.

Question

If Hatteberg's in at first now, why not just hit him for Votto initially? Lefty matchups, right, but Norris had no business being there.

by Brendanukkah on Apr 8, 2008 10:43 PM EDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Serious lefty issues

as in Hatteberg can't hit 'em and Shouse shuts 'em down

Still..

You want a guy who can hit it out of the infield there. If no one was on base you can pinch hit there.
