Lindor at 4 Canha at 1 Ruf at 5 Interesting, me like

I mean, hey. You want your leadoff guy to lead the team in OBP. I like it a lot.

Yeah, but that's probably only because Nimmo's not starting tonight. Last I looked (a few days ago) Canha was in the NL top 10 in OBP.

Edgy MD Aug 09 2022 01:08 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

Canha in center is a little more surprising to me than Canha in the leadoff spot. Also McNeil's first outfield gig since July 22, the week before the deadline deals.

ashie62 Aug 09 2022 01:42 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

Minor is a lefty so Nimmo gets a day off in the mix and match Ruf is lethal against lefties Keep the troops ready and rested

roger_that Aug 09 2022 02:08 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

Is Lindor at 3 or at 4?

Benjamin Grimm Aug 09 2022 02:12 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

I only see two names above his.

Frayed Knot Aug 09 2022 03:19 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

Nimmo (and also Pete) didn't look good last night. Combine that with the LH starter and it's a good day for an off-day.

Lindor 3 Petey 4

Frayed Knot Aug 09 2022 05:03 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

Yeah, I didn't budget my night with a rain delay in mind. Someone needs to let them know that this is most inconvenient for me and to get things going as quickly as possible.

Edgy MD Aug 09 2022 05:53 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

Getting under way, with apologies to Frayed Knot from Olmec rain god Jaguar.

ashie62 Aug 09 2022 06:07 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

Nice weather Reds batting

kcmets Aug 09 2022 06:28 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

Was it me, or was the first inning like a half hour?

Edgy MD Aug 09 2022 06:43 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

Seeing Barrero's and India's locks, I'm flashing back to the era when the Reds weren't allowed to wear long hair or facial hair. https://img.mlbstatic.com/mlb-photos/image/upload/d_people:generic:headshot:67:current.png/w_213,q_auto:best/v1/people/121606/headshot/67/current>

Frankie says relax!!!

Edgy MD Aug 09 2022 07:03 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

Nice to see him go deep from the right side.

Edgy MD Aug 09 2022 07:09 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

Tylor Megill draws Veteran of the Game duty.

Edgy MD Aug 09 2022 07:20 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

McNubbin going deep against lefties? Everything is coming up Millhouse!

Frayed Knot Aug 09 2022 07:21 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

Chatter in the radio booth reveals that Wayne is repulsed by peanut butter.

Edgy MD Aug 09 2022 07:27 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

That's helpful to know!

Edgy MD Aug 09 2022 07:28 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

Fifth inning strikeout of the side! India looking clueless all night.

seawolf17 Aug 09 2022 07:38 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

Knew I liked you, Wayne.

Edgy MD Aug 09 2022 07:51 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

We've got another starting pitcher putting up goose eggs through six.

Edgy MD Aug 09 2022 07:53 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

And Cincinnati is treating us to a parade of Mets prospects who were dealt away while they were still minor leaguers.

Edgy MD Aug 09 2022 08:02 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

Amazing that Carrasco has struck out eight batters, but all have been on pitches that haven't actually been in the strike zone. Hitting coaches, take note.

Edgy MD Aug 09 2022 08:02 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

And the Redders are on the board.

Edgy MD Aug 09 2022 08:07 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

I think our Cookie is a little overcooked.

Edgy MD Aug 09 2022 08:11 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

Givens gets us back on track.

Edgy MD Aug 09 2022 08:23 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

Intentionally walk Pete Alonso and invite some Ruf Justice!

Edgy MD Aug 09 2022 08:34 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

When trainers come out to check on an ump, they never ask them to run a few wind sprints.

Fman99 Aug 09 2022 08:36 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

That was an impressive K by Givens there in the previous inning.

Edgy MD Aug 09 2022 08:45 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

May, on the other hand, has gotten himself in a mess.

Edgy MD Aug 09 2022 08:48 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

But May finishes the job.

Edgy MD Aug 09 2022 08:54 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

Interesting when a team pinch-hits for their shortstop and his replacement comes up short on his first opportunity. Got the double-play after that, though.

Edgy MD Aug 09 2022 09:02 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

Put it in the Little Red Books!

ashie62 Aug 09 2022 09:12 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

Book it once again yeah!

Edgy MD Aug 09 2022 09:33 PM Re: IGT 8/9/22 Reds @ Mets

Somebody's trying to make bulletin board material out of Keef's bitching.
