6 in a row the wrong way! Time for Joey and Brandon to step it up and be the offensive leaders for this team. I think this is the night for the big offensive explosion to get things straightened out.

You mean like this.....
Stubbs 8, Phillips 4, Votto 3, Rolen 5, Bruce 9, Hernandez 2, Heisey 7, Janish 6, Cueto RHP
I really like this lineup. But I would switch Scotty and Jay.

Best lineup in a while. I'm still predicting a loss until they actually win.

Can't bat lefties back to back, because in the 9th inning the opposing team might bring in a left handed specialist, nevermind the 1st 8 innings of the game.wildcats20;778932 wrote:You mean like this.....

Joey's line vs LHP makes him, essentially, a righty. He and Bruce could easily bat back to back and a loogy wouldn't matter in late innings.

True. He does great against lefties....except for that one vs the tribe...he made Votta look like a little leaguer

I really do like that lineup. Have to wonder if Bruce is ready for teh 4 hole. Yeah, he leads the team in jacks but sometimes guys get the case of the goo when they get to that 4 hole, kinda like BP a couple of years ago. Some guys almost think they have to start hitting 5 run HR each time up. I like it how it is...Rolen is a quiet professional and will be good in taht spot.

Bruce has always seemed like a bit of a head case. Seems like he thinks too much. I trust him a lot more in non pressure situations

I also agree about Votto. He really doesn't count as a lefty. He does well against them

Yeah, but right now he is swinging the bat "without a care." If that makes sense. He isn't pushing at the plate, he is just hitting.

Exactly how I would have the lineup..it guarantees nothing but during these meager times it gives them the best chance to win .

Need to snap this thing tonight. If not it will just snowball. We need a bonafide ace to stop these streaks like this.
