Maholm has given up 2 or fewer runs in 4 of his 5 starts against the Reds, although he's never gotten a win against them. Josh Fogg has given up 18 runs in 3 starts against the Pirates. None of those "stats" mean anything, but it doesn't look like a good matchup for Cincinnati in any way.

Overserved and underwhelmed.
Here's a fun little tidbit.
Guess who started against the U.S. Olympic baseball team today (in a winning effort for South Korea)? Name doesn’t look familiar? Take another hit and think again.

No, you don't.
You aren’t thinking like Dusty.
Andy Phillips and Corey Patterson both hit better than Chris Dickerson and Adam Rosales in Louisville.
If you’ve given up on the season, then sure, let the kids play. See what you got. (I would call up Janish, too.)
But if you haven’t given up…you play the guys with who have hit better, not who might one day hit better.

Why isn't anyone posting about the game?
I thought there was a rain delay or something, but Gameday says otherwise.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
In all seriousness
I have no doubt that Dusty’s reasoning behind tonight’s lineup is that he wants “to ease the young guys” into the majors, “make sure guys have established roles,” etc etc. To that end. we’ll see pretty strict knifey-spoony splits. Against a tough-ish lefty like Maholm, okay, fine, whatever.
I will say that if Jocketty is calling the shots on starters, I’d like to see him also force Dusty to give dudes like Dickerson, Hanigan and Rosales as many ABs as possible vs. both LHP and RHP. Baker’s devotion to Patterson, as we know, is beyond human reasoning, but guys like Cabrera, A Phillips and Valentin shouldn’t be taking many at bats away from the younger guys.
In conclusion, why am I thinking about this?

I don't think they see those young guys as anything more than utility guys
Well, maybe Hanigan, but I can see taking it easy on him. He’s a catcher, and catchers have a hard time not wearing down over the season.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
They're almost definitely utility guys
but between dudes who are probably utility guys and dudes who are confirmed utility guys, I’d like to see the former get as many opportunities to prove otherwise.

I’m more a hello man and a welcome man than a good-bye man. And to me Adam Dunn was more a person than a player.
I'm assuming that not many fellas in the league are swingier than Bruce and Phillips?

The problem with the Reds is that even after dumping Griffey and Dunn
The offense is all about Home Runs.
And if you think about it ever since that new bitch mascot Rosie Red has come on the scene everything has gone downhill for the Reds.
No wonder Dusty is shell shocked – This has got to be the only team with 3 mascots and no genuine Home Run Hitter.
You can tell your uncle stuff that you could not tell your dad. That is kind of the role of an uncle. I feel very much like a father sometimes but sometimes I feel like a teammate.
