Reds Roster: You Make The Call

[HafDawg2003]

We should have demanded Bowden take LaRue in this
That being said:

Lineup:

C: David Ross
1B: Hatteberg
2B: Brandon Phillips
SS: Royce Clayton
3B: Edwin Encarnacion
LF: Adam Dunn
CF: Ken Griffey Jr.
RF: Chris Denorifa

Bench
Aurilia
Freel
Valentin
LaRue
Bergolla
Castro
Wise

Rotation:
Arroyo
Harang
Milton
Ramirez
Mays

Bullpen
Guardado
Majewski
Bray
Yan
Standridge
Belisle
Coffey
Weathers
Mercker

By my count, thats 30. 15 Hitting, 14 Pitching

Possible jettisons:
Hatteberg (Unlikely)
LaRue
Valentin
Bergolla (Why is he up?)
Wise (We need 2 OF on the bench though...)
Yan
Standridge (Unlikely, I would think)
Weathers
Coffey (Get his head together in AAA?)
Mercker?
Mays?

Thoughts?

good call on LaRue, i wish they would have taken him so Jerry couldn't start him.. ever again

I would say look for 1 hitter and 2 relievers to go.. or 2 hitters and 1 reliever, i think Bergolla is just up for tonights game until the players we got get into town.. unless they move a catcher down and finally stop carrying 3

you listed 12, but said 13, i am guessing that is because you have already jettisoned Mays..lol.. so with that you only need one, and by my count the only ones staying for sure are Majewski, Bray and Guardado, any one of the others would be expected for whatever reason.. i don't think Coffey will go i think back to set up should help him get straight

that must be what you want, cause we already know they aren't going to move Phillips to SS

[Reds_fan_4_life]

yes i think it would be the best for the team to move him to SS anyways. But as long as Clayton stays out of the lineup im good lol. What ya think bout my 5th starter?? i think we could give him a shot.. doing better than Claussen/Mays would i think

[HafDawg2003]

WayK and Baseball Guy said Clayton will start at SS for this team.

Yeah, I jettisoned Joe Mays because, well, is there any doubt?
