That didn't last long

[Post Count Padder]

Reds recalled OF Corey Patterson from Triple-A Louisville.

 

He's baaack! With Ryan Freel headed to the disabled list and Ken Griffey Jr. also hurting, the team needed depth in the outfield. Patterson won't take at-bats from Jay Bruce, but if Griffey continues to miss time, Bruce could slide over to right and Patterson might get a few games in center. The team could also use Paul Janish at short and stick Jerry Hairston in center.

LMFAO! Dusty got one of his horses back.

No, Griffey is still out with sorness in his knee.

 

Bruce in RF and batting 3rd.

 

Hairston

Patterson

Bruce

Phillips

Dunn

Votto

Encarnacion

Bako

Volquez

 

That lineup has 3 automatic outs (Patterson, Bako, Volquez) and with the slump Phillips is in it's close to 4.

I pulled this Dusty quote from a thread about this on the Reds mlb board:

 

"I mean but Corey gives me the speed I need he gives me the same thing I needed before -- speed, defense and this little ballpark here he can hit the ball out the ball park."

 

\:D/

 

Speed doesn't slump dudes.

[Brett]

Hairston and Patterson at the top of the lineup in front of the run producers? Dusty must be giddy beyond words.

[reds44]

Patterson has seen 5 pitches in 3 ABs tonight.

 

He's 0-3.

I'm sorry reds44. There is no amount of words, I or my fellow Cub fans can say that can help you through this rough times.

I still can't believe he said that. It sounds like Jocketty kept telling him "No" when he was asked to bring Corey back and this was his immature little 8-year old response. I can picture Dusty clenching his fists and pounding a table with ice cream spilled on his shirt
