Re: Red's Fans Check in
Like the lineup Dusty threw together today, is he trying to give away an extra game?

Re: Red's Fans Check in
Those pinch hitters helped. His starting lineup was deplorable.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
Stubbs is the least of this team's worries right now. Harris is crap and needs to be DFA'd or released, Rolen is terrible at the plate, Frazier needs to get starts at third, and Dusty needs to learn how to make a fu@K!ng lineup. Yesterday's lineup was terrible. I could see it if they hadn't had any off days, but an off day, a rainout, and then sitting the left side of the infield after one game was friggin' ridonkulous! I hear Dusty's on a short leash right now. It's high time for him to go.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
I've never been a big Dusty hater, but yesterday's lineup just p!ssed me off to no end. We give the mediocre big name guy extensions, while Showalter and Johnson show the rest of the league how a manager should really manage a game. It's high time for us to get a manager who isn't laid back. Time to fire this team up and get us winning consistently.

I agree, yesterdays lineup was crap, he got bailed out when he put in the regulars and the Cubs blew the 9th inning with errors. I tried to interject that, but Dan saw the final score and was more than happy with Dusty's 'managing' of the game

Re: Red's Fans Check in
A guy on the Reds forum over at Cincy.com said that this was Dusty's master plan. Starters couldn't hit Dempster, so he saved them until late in the game against relievers and Marmol. I'm 99% sure the post was being sarcastic, but even so, I just don't think Dusty's that smart. Not even Nostradamus could've predicted that Marmol would've walked that many guys in the 9th.

If a guy isn't hitting well, you don't put him out there expecting that he's due for a hit. He's probably not going to hit. You put the guys out there who are hot at that moment. I don't mind changing the lineup because guys are hot, but you don't put your worst hitter in the two hole simply because you think he is due. Willie Harris is absolutely worthless, and couldn't hit in a low A ball game, and probably not in a high school game. .098 average and he's in the two hole? F*** Dusty and HARRIS! Stubbs is an All-Star compared to this guy. And we all thought Patterson/Taveras/Renteria was bad...

Re: Red's Fans Check in
Stubbs sucks. They need to send him down to Dayton so we can take a drive up there and boo him. Adam's treat, since he is our lead boo bird.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
Dan and Hugh, we get your point about Stubbs. Now let's get some hate on the true reasons we're not winning:
Dusty Harris Rolen's offense No true leadoff or cleanup hitter Left Field situation

Re: Red's Fans Check in
Like I said in my PM to you, I know it's sarcasm, but we've got to focus on the worst aspects of this team right now.
Stubbs is a Greek God compared to Harris at the plate. Dusty needs to go, and now if we're going to even have a slight chance at the playoffs. No one in the minors to bring up right now b/c we sold them in the offseason and Janish has been on fire, but he suffered from a broken wrist. We need a skipper who can motivate guys to hit and/or bring a new approach to our offense. Laid back Dusty isn't going to change anything.
