Right at game time I had four calls from my boys talking about it. That and a discussion over whether Phillips should be hitting 4th. I love the McDonald discussion.

How bad is Cincy's CF depth? McDonald is listed as their backup CF and I don't even think that Darnell would be starting CF for the Red Wings. Heck, I might even start Pridie and Martin over McDonald in Rochester. Thankfully for Cincy, they've got Willy Taveras and his studly career 72 OPS+ to start every day once he gets over the flu.

A Convention date, perhaps? Or maybe it was another game that I saw with DPWY and Banjo. Can't remember I know I saw him in person once get totally overmatched. A Convention date, perhaps?

I had no idea he'd be in the starting lineup. When I saw his name on the Cincinnati roster, my thought was, well, I suppose as a fifth outfielder he might not be so awful.
