Valdez in center makes me nervous. Citi field is huge!

Valdez in CF? Hmm

Even more curious is the decision to hit him second

Wilson Valdez will be fine, of all the outfield positions CF is easiest. I would probably venture that he has a better arm than Negron and that is when the size of the field really comes into play. Throws to cutoffs from the wall would be 200' under duress and having shown he can pitch he obviously has arm strength enough to make those types of throws.

Not sure it's the easiest.....but it is the most important.

I will not be able to watch this game much longer if the umpire keeps making his strike call like that. LOL.

Off topic, but this thread at Redszone brings the lulz. OP must have a sub-50 IQ.

LOL! That dude is dumb as fuck. Can we recruit him to post over here. It would be awesome to see stuff like that on a daily basis on the OC.

Seriously. He'd definitely be in the competition for dumbest poster here and that's saying something (just kidding, I love everyone here).

disagree on CF being most important. Would argue right field is. Longest throws to second and third base (scoring position bases) in most ballparks, predominance of left handed power hitters in MLB, and backup requirements for throws to second and first. Reds best outfield arm and possibly best outfielder in general is Jay Bruce, this is why he plays right.
