Leake Vs Beckett. Vottos back, Reds win 10-1.

Bruce down to .208 and on pace for like 50 RBI. I don't get why he is so bad this year. I truly thought he was going to have an incredible season.

Hamilton CF
Frazier 3B
Votto 1B
Phillips 2B
Bruce RF
Mesoraco C
Schumaker LF
Cozart SS
Leake RHP
Best lineup possible, just not positive on the batting order.

I'm not convinced Skip is ever part of the best lineup possible. I'll assume Skip has better numbers off of Beckett than Ludwick...if not it's fucking stupid.wildcats20;1624673 wrote:Hamilton CF

No one...none of them are very good but damnit Ludwick was 2/4 with a HR yesterday. Skip gets too many starts on this team.wildcats20;1624682 wrote:Then who replaces him?

Cozart has the 4th lowest OPS of all starters in baseball, luckily Skip's is even lower making the bottom of the order murderer's row.

So much for getting the baseball game over to concentrate on the 4th qtr of the basketball game!

Gold glove play by Leake for the first out!

I agree. If Skip starts, you have one of the worst LF's in baseball. If Ludwick starts, it's the same. If Heisey starts, it's the same. Too bad their making about 11M combined...

It baffles me how Jocketty didn't go get a LF in the offseason...especially with Castellini showing he's willing to spend.Azubuike24;1624846 wrote:I agree.

Can the Reds even see Beckett? They are swinging wildly. Bruce swings at one near his ankles and then swung at one above his shoulders...Meso wailing away. Leake seems to have no confidence ( or he just knows he doesn't have his good stuff)....but this might already by over.

Heck, I think Leake looks pretty good. The Reds could win this if they can get 3 or 4 runs.Ironman92;1624851 wrote:Can the Reds even see Beckett? They are swinging wildly.

Yeah, I normally bash Leake, but not because he's awful. He's just very rarely capable of going toe to toe with a top starter or against a top offense. That makes it very tough when your offense averages about 1-2 runs a game.

I dunno. Kemp looks like Garbage. Freaking Van Slyke looked like Kemp circa 2011 last night.

Man, Leake and Meso can't get it working. Terrible pace.
