One hell of a at bat for Schebler. 11 pitches HR. The Reds have a problem. Where is Winker gonna play when he is called up for good?
The obivious choice is to bench Hamilton. But that kills the OF Def. with Schebler in CF. Schebler has been good to start year outside of batting average. And I may be in minority here but I don't hold the batting average stat real high on my list anymore. Duvallas been hot. So where do you play him?
I still like Schebler better than Duvall and the first 12 games has did nothing to change my mind. But right now you can't bench Duvall.
I would rotoate all 4 guys. It instantly makes the bench stronger. whoever isn't playing would be worlds better than anyone else on the bench.
I let Duvall get a start at 3b and one at 1b. Votto is no spring chicken he could use a off day here and there.
Anyway nice problem to have. While I ramble on Reds take the lead.

The problem w/ Winker is his lack of power. If he played 2nd base/ss/CF, no problem, but corner OF'ers HAVE to knock the ball over the fence or you're going to be at a huuuge disadvantage in today's game. But, playing is GASP might change that, the ball does fly like hell there.

I am not into OLD SCHOOL BATTING AVERAGE STATS. MANY MORE STATS OUT THERE TO JUDGE HOW A HITTER IS REALLY PREFORMING. BATTING AVERAGE = WINS FOR PITCHERS BOTH STUPID STATS. |

Schebler is swinging at far less pitches but making more contact and hard contact. The hits will fall.
This team HAS TO GET HAMILTON ANDPERAZA OUT OF THE 1 AND 2 SPOTS.

He had an over 1.000 OPS in 2 months at AAA thenhit .291 when recalled the rest of the season. I give him a decent leash. |

I would sure sit Schebler before Hamilton. |
