SOTG: Chubs versus Reds Game#3

[WvuDieHard]

Leake versus Wood: Now this is a nice matchup. Something tells me to take the Wind, Rain and Hail in this one as I doubt this one gets going at all. If it does, I will take Bruce to continue to pummel left handed pitching. Bruce for SOTG.

Ok...I buy into Robinson and Choo, and the SS in 8 spot, but dust Cozart hit well yesterday ? Why bench him the day after...( and probably hit him 2nd again tomorrow ?) I'm always suspicious of any kind of change from Dusty, especially on. Winning streak. He IS a losaholic, you know.

 

[Redsfan1507]

I'd hit Leake 8th and Izturis 9th... And might double switch for a pinch hitter for Izturis and let Leake play SS. Mark Belanger made Izturis look like Cal Ripken as a hitter. I know some AA players sisters that can hit better.

 

[Ryanballa]

I'll go with Choo!!!

Leake

It's hard to not give it to Leake.
Frazier with the winning dinger.

 

[bengaldoug]

If that's true I now have two winners. Bet you front runners are shaking in your boots.

It is a very long season. And go for the 50-point Dusty bonus pick.
