Spring Game 7 Thread: Reds at Red Sox

Micah Owings makes his second start of the Spring today as the Reds travel to Fort Myers. Owings pitched 3 shutout innings last Thursday against the Twins. Much like Homer Bailey, Owings needs to perform well each time out if he wants to lock down a roster spot. And while I'll admit that I'm rooting for Bailey to win it, I'd be quite alright with a healthy Owings taking the 5th spot in the rotation. At the very least, it's a nice problem to have, don't you think?
On the mound for the Sox today is Jon Lester. The Reds don't exactly have their most intimidating lineup out there for the pitcher some consider to be the Red Sox ace, but I'm interested to see how Juan Francisco in particular performs against a top of the line big league pitcher. Hopefully he will be feasting on a bounty of children this afternoon. Roar!
Game time is 1:05pm. There doesn't appear to be any audio on the Red Sox side, so it looks like we're stuck with just Gameday again today.

synonyms: feat , exploit , achievement mean a remarkable deed. feat implies strength or dexterity or daring (brazenly eating children).
exploit suggests an adventurous or heroic act (his titanic homers).
achievement implies hard-won success in the face of difficulty or opposition (making the team, winning the 3B starting job, eating Krivsky’s kids.).

The Reds are 10th overall
I have the game and played it over the weekend, it’s pretty sweet.
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.....
I know almost nothing about video games..
..but why would anyone pay good money for a game that claims to simulate actual game play and yet presents the Reds as the team at the top of the middle of the pack?

Who said anything about paying for it? :)
But I get your point. The “ranking bar” had the Reds real good at pitching, just below average in offense, real good in speed, and real bad in defense. Pretty accurate IMO. I’m not sure how that adds up to 10th best overall, but whatever.

Easy Explanation
… it’s that “new math”
Overrated pitching + crappy offense + horrible defense + BLAZING speed = 10th best team.
Duh
Either that, or it’s smoke & mirrors, and BCast paid off someone at the game company, b/c of course the losing stops now!

"I never should have given up the animation rights."
Owings v. Bailey
2 singles to start off with, but Owings gets out of the 1st and 3rd situation with a swinging strikeout and a GIDP.
This battle is exciting.
much more interesting than the epic Victor Santos vs. Kirk Saarloos battle of 2007
"How big IS your magic wand?"
2007 was also the year of Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem
The tagline, “Whoever wins, we lose,” got a LOT of use that year.
I think it's making both players that much more competitive
They should give the winner the 5th spot, and put the loser in the ’pen. And then, tell the winner that if he falters, the other guy is going to take his spot in the rotation.

I'm concerned about DustPan
misusing Owings in a PH/bullpen role. I see Dusty warming Owings up for 7 throws, then pinch-hitting him with none out, he gets on, runs the bases (3 SB attempts + 2 hit-and-runs), tires him out creating havoc, and then when he’s stranded on base, he only gets 5 warmup pitches before entering the game, resulting in maximum suckitude.

Interesting blurb from Rotowire this morning:
Austin Kearns (OF) WAS – Mar 03
http://www.rotowire.com/baseball/player.htm?id=6503
Kearns hasn’t swung a bat since last Wednesday due to a blister problem, the
Nationals web site reports.
ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The best Kearns can hope for this spring is to hang onto
a bench job, but with Jim Bowden out as GM Kearns may not have many supporters
left in the Nationals front office. Don’t be too shocked if he gets cut loose
entirely.
Is anyone else thinking that they’d rather have Kearns on the roster than Hopper? Austin has had a couple of injury-plagued years that made him sucky…but he’s not old, and has upside…yes?

If he's cut by the Nats?
yes. I wouldn’t give up anything for him, but I’d definitely take him at the league minimum.
"How big IS your magic wand?"

which is why it’ll never happen.
Wear something sexy to my funeral.
yes, he does have up-side
but only for the league minimum. how cruel would that be to tear him away from Dunn once again
OOOOO....that's a bonus
We get to make a Texan cry!
I agree…he’s too good to pass up at league minimum, otherwise, meh.
Although I am told that if we are shrewd, once he is released and becomes an unrestricted free agent, we could sign him to a $3.5M minor league deal and get him a new girlfriend.
I laid my bed and I'm going to have to sit on it. - A-Roid the Liar

Owings comes out for the 4th. Gives up a double, strikeout, ground out, and a walk. Removed for Burton who promptly gives up a 2-run double before getting a line out to end the inning.

BTW lets see what Gonzo can do before completely writing him.
Also BTW Cherry is no longer (if ever) an acceptable SS but the man can hit and make stuff happen. If Gonzo’s good to go Jerry Jr. is in LF.

but then he's only a late inning pinch hitter
seems like someone like Owings should be an early inning pinch hitter. In which case he should be a starter.
"How big IS your magic wand?"
UNLESSS
this example happens:
Pitcher blows up in 4th inning,
Owings comes in, gets out of the inning, is up to bat in the next inning
Owings does well, goes until the 7th or so…
…and then you double switch an RP for the LF, Owings goes to LF.
I think this is my dream for what they use him for. Of course, I doubt it’ll happen. For one, Owings trying to get a runner out at home after throwing 60 pitches could be scary.

He’ll throw from the stretch. Duh!
"You never pass up an opportunity to talk to a woman in a red dress." -- Buck O'Neil (1911-2006)
I think it would
but which would work better, that or having him as the 5th starter, and being available to pinch hit the other 4 days betweens tarts?

that would be ideal
but you have to have the best starting pitcher. if it looks like that will be bailey or someone else i dont think owings should get preference just because he can hit
Or maybe neither will get preference because
they both have options left, unlike Masset.
