Redleg Nation:
The holiday weekend begins with a transaction. Danny Richar has been placed on the 15-day DL, and Edwin Encarnacion has been reinstated to the active roster. Welcome back, Edwin!
Well, we can’t welcome EE back to the lineup, because Jerry Hairston is starting at third. Of course. Full lineup below the fold. It is bizarre, as usual. Willy Taveras is actually not leading off, with the Cardinals throwing a right-hander tonight. Don’t get too excited. Taveras is batting second (!), rather than playing lefty-hitting Laynce Nix tonight. Things just keep getting curiouser and curiouser.
It’s a sellout crowd at Great American Ballpark. Let’s hope they’re loud and that they get to go home happy. Discuss the game here.

Thinking about Dusty Baker
Some things I was just wondering about…
Dusty Baker continuing to lead off Willy Taveras and building the lineups he does — is that the single worst thing any recent Reds manager has done to hurt the team’s chances of winning?
Usually lineup construction doesn’t have a big impact, but the Reds are close to being a good team, their offense is terrible, and they lose a lot...

Encarnacion, who had been out with a wrist fracture, had been hitting in his rehab games, and should slot in immediately as the everyday third baseman for the Reds.

FB365's Morning Drive 7/3/09
In Cincinnati, Chris Dickerson is making a case for the full time centerfield job. As Willy Taveras continues not to get on base (NOT A SINGLE WALK IN THE MONTH OF JUNE!!) Dickerson finds himself with a respectable .288 AVG and .389 OBP. He's not doing much with regards to power or stolen bases, but if by chance Dusty Baker decides to bat him leadoff because, deep breath, HE...
Game Thread: Diamondbacks at Reds — 2009.07.02
Arizona starting pitcher Doug Davis is going to look like Cy Young today, I’m afraid.
Not only has the Reds’ offense been struggling mightily, but Aaron Harang is pitching for the Reds. The offense never scores for Harang, whether he’s pitching well or pitching poorly.
It’s an afternoon game, though, and those are always fun. Ignore your work and discuss the game here…...
Game Thread: D’backs at Reds — 2009.07.01
July begins with renewed optimism and a matchup between Johnny Cueto and Jon Garland. Conventional wisdom would say the Reds should be favored in this matchup but then, conventional wisdom wouldn’t put Willy Taveras at the top of the order, either. Or maybe it would. What do I know?
(Don’t answer that. Please.)
Anyway, discuss the game here!
