Heisey!

Jonny Bonds getting the day off in left is somewhat surprising.

Not a bad idea getting Heisey back to back starts replacing two diff guys.

cannot win them all unless ya win the first five.

Love the fact that Stubbs is doing a better job of making contact this year.

I still get pissed everytime I see Phillips on the reds roster. SMH at the Tribe for getting rid of him bc of Ronnie Freaking Belliard.

Player to be named later. I have no idea who that was. Phillips was kinda becoming a persona non grata for the Indians because (a) he flopped in his early stint in the bigs and (b) Tribe fans might know more about this, but I remember people on the Huddle talking about coaches wanting to adjust his plate approach or something and he wasn't receptive to it, so he got a prima donna reputation and they wanted to get rid of him.

Yeah Phillips and the Grinder didnt get along. Stevens never even pitched for the Tribe far as I know.

he was a dog in cleveland, and it is a very good chance if a trade wasnt made he woulda been outta the game already. change of scene helped him big time I think.

Is this the best defensive lineup in baseball? Hanigan would make it slightly better but not by much.

I've been happy with Gomes so far this year, but I would like to see Heisey get some more PT. He's an upgrade defensively and he just seems to get the job done with the bat.

Stubbs (and the team in general) look a lot different this year. They all seem to have different approaches and have been extremely patient thus far. Stubbs looks like he is going to be even better than I had imagined he was going to be this year.

Glad Phillips is in the line-up. Didnt he have to be taken out after a hit to the chest yesterday?

He slid (awfully) into a base and basically did a belly flop on the dirt. Says he just got the wind knocked out of him, but it wouldn't go away...he's fine though.

He couldn't get his breath after that slide last night.



And once again, I get the Cavs and not the Reds.
