                                Brutal first month.
IF they can start around .500 in the first 28-30 games this team will win the division.

Side note: this thread is fine, but I'd def like to do game by game threads like we normally do. This thread could run parallel to game threads as more "off the field" type moves like trades, baker's idiocies, minor league news, etc.

Not the recent version.
I would let Heisey and Paul fill in, and if need be someone from the minors.

                        Paul's great as a pinch-hitter and spot starter. Even bumping him to platoon will hurt, though. That's what happened in Pittsburgh two years ago. He did really good in a limited role, so the team increased his role to get him on the field as often as possible. And so we found out that he really is a .250 hitter without much power.thavoice;1419041 wrote:If it was the 2006 version of AJ then sure.

                                Two dumb decisions last night by managers.
Bringing in Hoover who threw 50 pitches two days prior when you have more than capable arms to come in, and then pitching to Votto. You take your chances with Phillips every day of the week, and twice on sunday, over JV

                                Cingrani has struck out 8 of the first 9 batters he's faced tonight. Robert Stephenson throwing 96-99mph fastballs in his start.
