Spring Game 24 Thread: Blue Jays at Reds
Edinson Volquez on the mound today. Did you know that he has only given up 1 ER in this Spring in 14 innings pitched, including games for the D.R.? He gave up 6 hits and 2 walks to the Rays last Wednesday, so that's got to improve, but otherwise he's had a solid Spring, for sure.
On the mound for the Blue Jays is Ricky Romero. If he fails, Lucy is going to be pissed.
You can see lineups after the jump.
Game time is 1:05pm. No home radio coverage today, but you can check them out on Gameday.

FIRST!
I miss the old days of the internet when men were men, hot girls were middle aged men, and hot underage girls were FBI agents.....
Apparently
Johnny Cueto doesn’t want Willy -T either. Knocked him out of the line-up. how many people got just a little bit excited when they read that Willy T was hurting?
The way things have gone this spring, A Gomes/Nix platoon in left with Dickerson in center might sound good.
Oh well, it is just a bruise.
I'm not so down on T-bagger at this point
He’s taken some walks, has his OBP up where it should be…..It’s only 30 or so plate appearances, but if he can keep it going, he’ll be a decent leadoff guy.
Sort of good news!
Nick Masset is of the running [sic] for the fifth starter position! However, Dusy has said that he’ll be used out of the bullpen. Fay thinks Owings will win the fifth starter position, so that’s looking like Homer will start the year in Louisville. Unless Bray starts the season on the DL, and Bailey is put in the pen. It’s a shame, because Homer has had a fantastic spring, better than anyone could have hoped. He’s pitched much better than Masset, for damn sure.
I like that they're batting a DH...
But we’re not.
We want to build long period of time. I didn’t come here for the shot run.
Just got the last two box tickets
for the Mudcats-Reds exhibition.
There's action across the street. It's Snowman! Take him!

Ahhh, guess I won't be in a fancy box then.

Oh, I missed that implication...
Next Friday! March has really flown by…

Already got my ticket
Thought I’d stop by and allow myself to introduce myself if you guys are there.
As good a place as any to ask...
Is there a listing off all of MLB Team Previews our fine folks are doing? I checked the wiki – which might be a place to put links to them, but didn’t see them..
Woo hoo. Reds on Gameday.
Oh yeah, UDF gas fill-ups result in 50% off Reds tickets with receipt. Didn’t look like there was a limit.. I’ll hang on to it for Game 2..
Education is what you get from reading the directions. Experience is what you get from not reading them.
Good idea.
We’ll put something together, either on the sidebar or the wiki.

Side bar would be better..
I can’t actually get to the Wiki from work. Apparently something at wikidot is offending or some other nonsense..

I think it's finally time
We need to kidnap Jeff Keppinger and hold him hostage until October. It’s the only way.

I'm fully in support of this option
And they want him over at Bleed Cubbie Bleed too! Win-win-win!

Surely Hairston would start at SS
Especially with the good springs from GoDicker.
If Kepp is starting SS I’m going to cry
you know if A-Gon is out
Kepp is going to get like 3 starts a week at short. And i am going to heckle him or throw things at the television dependent on my location.

ST gameday isn't technically open to the public
The url was tinkered with to access it so they aren’t putting a lot of effort into it except to have the important stats recorded.

Nice to see Janish showing some competence with the bat
If he can keep that up, then maybe we have ourselves a legit replacement for Gonzalez’s sore hamstrings.
Also Gomes still seems to want to make the team.
by Brendanukkah on Mar 23, 2009 3:48 PM EDT up reply actions
He's certainly looking viable
His OPB is somewhere around .350 right now. I’d take that especially with sparkling defense.

Gonalez's Injury
According to Fay, it should only cost him “a day, two maybe.”
6 cuts
The only one that surprised me was Ward.
I hoped he would be cut but I thought he would be one of the last.
Somebody tell me how Jones was not on that list.
OK. seriously.
Is it not getting beyond ridiculous that Jones is still on the team right now? Does he have to drop below .050 before they consider cutting him?

I think he's cruising on his reputation
You should have seen how excited people got when he came to the plate. The little kids were squealing, the adults were all expecting him to get a big hit. I think he’ll be one of the last cut.

for Jacque Jones?
even when he was good, did he deserve that sort of reputation?
