The lineup
- Jerry Hairston Jr. ss
- Adam Dunn lf
- Ken Griffey Jr. rf
- Brandon Phillips 2b
- Joey Votto 1b
- Edwin Encarnacion 3b
- Jay Bruce cf
- David Ross c
- Edinson Volquez p
The Reds haven't hit Duke well in the past, except for Dunn. But the offense has been doing much better over the last 3 games (.291/.387/.534). Hopefully it's a sign of a turnaround for the bats.
Volquez was hit a little hard in his last start against the Blue Jays. I'm calling it an aberration. He'll be back on track tonight. A win tonight will give the Reds just their second 4-game win streak of the season.
Look for big days from Joey Votto (yay!) and Jason Bay (boo!) today. It is Canada Day, eh!

That's a good looking lineup
How could it look better? If it was written on the talismanic Megan Fox!
Crolfer - isn't that just a bit more than you can handle?
What’s that Megan ? Once you’ve gone Crolfer you want it over and over !!!!
"When I got my award, I just wore my usual stuff," Dunn said.
"Was it for the Reds organization or all of baseball?" Bruce said.
Yeah well the offense should be doing better, Kepps back, Jerry Jr's back and Copats on the bench
And tonight Dunn is in the 2 hole. Sadly ol’man Grif Jr. is in the 3 hole but other than that, as Megan says – If this is the way that Crolfer wants it..then so be it.
"When I got my award, I just wore my usual stuff," Dunn said.
"Was it for the Reds organization or all of baseball?" Bruce said.
Eh, Griffey hit a homer yesterday
Let’s see if he can keep it up. I’d like to see Keppinger playing, but I’m not sure where he’d play unless you’re sitting one of the outfielders. But he gives us a decent option as a pinch-hitter, which is a nice little luxury to have. I’m really happy with this lineup.

Good stuff from Fire Joe Morgan
In case you guys hadn’t seen it, here is a nice rip on people who seem to forget how valuable Dunn is compared to some other outfielders.
Canadia Day!
Apparently there will be fireworks…but we get fireworks all the freaking time here in the summer.
didn't Dusty Milosevic say
that Dunn would sit today? I’m not complaining, however…
...because there's already someone posing as Jacob Brumfield
And of course Dunn is the only guy to have hit Duke well.
Well played, toothpick
Jeff, we hardly knew ye...
*ahem*
according to Wiki...
“sought to expand his power, by inciting religious and ethnic hatred in the cause of The Dodger Way; by demonizing and dehumanizing people, especially Bronson Arroyo and Joey Votto ... He unleashed wars in Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky, creating 2 million refugees and leaving a quarter of a million people dead … he stripped the Reds fandom of its constitutional self-government, and began harassing and oppressing its people.”
yeah…sounds about right
...because there's already someone posing as Jacob Brumfield
Maybe Edinson can find a use for that guy's 14 K signs from last week.
Needless to say, they weren’t used in Toronto.
wow why isnt keppinger starting
he hitting around 400 against leftys and even though there is alot of man love for edwin here i dont see how you sit keppinger for edwin. even though dusty likes edwin there is no reason for keppinger to be sitting today, while batting over 300

(cue elevator music)
"God has blessed me and I will continue to do my best for him. This is more important than anything I could do in baseball." -Albert Pujols
I will just say that EdE's been on fire the past several weeks
So while the season totals give nearly identical OPS (EdE: .248/.338/.462, Kepp: .320/.378/.434), over the past 14 days and eight games for each, the numbers are pretty different: EdE .292/.433/.583 and Kepp .296/.406/.370. Though if you just look at batting average-and I’m fairly certain you do-they look quite similar even over that period.
still i hope this isnt a trend
sitting kepp, even for eddie e because while eddie e does have streaks at time, keppinger is more consistent
"God has blessed me and I will continue to do my best for him. This is more important than anything I could do in baseball." -Albert Pujols
Well, we basically have one too many.
C said that Dusty talked to Hairston and Keppinger about this yesterday or today, since there’s just one too many of Hairston/Kepp/Dunn/Bruce/Griffey/EdE. So he’ll be rotating them in as possible.
I’d take EdE over Keppinger, but against a LHP, I’d prefer Keppinger over Griffey, personally. He doesn’t like it when that happens.
Nice 8-pitch inning, EV.

He really never does seem to go out and fight for his players. Trust us Dusty, we can spare you a lot more than we can them.

He barely objected
and his English sucks.
That ump knew he blew it and showed that by throwing him out that quick.
I Dusty loses points for not go Pinella on him
Hope Springs Eternal! Go Reds
I honestly think
he’s a team leader at this point, statistics aside.
I remember him coming out to talk to Cueto during a tough inning earlier this year…he seems to be the go-between for the Hispanics and non-Hispanics.

Bases chucked with no outs and only one run. I know RBIs are pretty meaningless, but dammit it would be nice if someone picked one up every now and then. Sad thing is, Keppinger’s probably the person you want up most, since he’ll at least make contact.
