As a player absolutely. He just seems like a douche.

He just reminds me of the guy you would see jerking it on the city bus in the middle of the afternoon.

                                Baseball is pretty easy when you get a good lead early, get decent pitching, and play good defense.  And it is more fun with the much lower pressure.

I mean, Barry Zito is garbage. If they Reds don't score some runs, it's a joke. Reynolds may allow some, but the Reds should be able to score.

                                Reynolds has nothing that can miss bats.  If the Giants keep hitting it in the right spots, they will score double digits.

                                What a bad break for Reynolds on the 1-2 pitch to Posey.  It was a tailing fastball that had tremendous movement, right in to hit Posey.

                                Izturis is a natural lefty who is better hitting left-handed than right-handed.  Zito average against is almost 80 points higher vs lefties.  Izturis chooses to hit righty.

                                Wow. I think if Mesoraco is in, that play at the plate is an out.
I was mad at first, but that's a good call. Corky didn't get the tag in time.

Point is, if the lineup on the 2nd game of a back to back (not just a double header..literally starting the game 30 min after the first one is over) makes you sick, well idk what to tell you

                        So Choo, Votto, Bruce, and Phillips are just in better shape than Cozart who just had a 4-4 game? No way should Izturis and Hannahan be in the same starting lineup.SportsAndLady;1477730 wrote:Well now you're just being a dick.

                        Look I'm not fucking arguing this is the best lineup that he could have put out. Just saying I'm not going to bitch about the lineup; I knew it wouldn't be great.se-alum;1477733 wrote:So Choo, Votto, Bruce, and Phillips are just in better shape than Cozart who just had a 4-4 game?

I'm more worried about the bullpen not being destroyed through basically 18 innings of baseball rather than putting the best lineup out there in the 2nd of back-to-back games of a 162 game season.
