Smart for the pitching aspect but Hernandez has been hitting pretty well....but even Corky has been hitting the ball hard most of the time but his average doesn't show it.
Phillips and Cabrera have to get on base at least 4 times combined and Votto-Stubbs needs 4+ RBI combined

I wish I wasn't stuck at work. I really want to see Wood pitch.

Yeah give me Hernandez's bat in the lineup. I understand why Dusty has Corky in there though. Hanigan can't come back soon enough

I love Jonny but it seems like is regressing to a number some what closer to his career average. I don't think he'll hit .246 (his career average) this year, but I also think it was unrealistic to expect him to continue to hit at a .290+ clip

Hopefully Wood returns the favor of Jeff Pico in about 1989. The young guy the Cubs brought up threw a complete game 4 hit shutout....and hopefully Wood goes on to a more successful career as Pico hardly stayed in the big leagues for just a few years.

Gomes needs to take a ball or two to RF or RCF....he's over-swinging (even for him)....pulling his head badly
He's a touch anxious. lol......maybe if he doesn't figure that out one of the Cubs loser pitchers can just give him some mistakes to kill onto Waveland.

Corky is 5 for 18 since he got his first hit, almost a .300 average. Obviously he won't keep that up but it's been a nice surprise.

lol....I put 500/1 odds that Rolen would hit a HR a triple and record an error....and he leads off with a triple...no freaking way
That being said...if that ball didn't go out I'm not sure many will be hit today.

Keep it going Reds. This is another one of those games that needs to be put in the win column. We need a good start on this road trip.

That 500/1 shot looks pretty good now with the Rolen triple! Maybe about 70/1 from here.

damn that's 2 that would have been out in GABP, of course Lee's would have been out too. I wonder when Bruce will get moved up to the 5 spot ahead of Gomes.

With the Bruce double, along with the rolen shot, the Reds were very close to a 3-0 lead, but its only 1-0 so far.

Travis needs to keep the bat on his shoulder, or bunt!
