Griffey in; Freel out

The lineup vs. the Astros:

Hamilton cf
Phillips 2b
Hatteberg 1b
Griffey rf
Gonzalez ss
Dunn lf
Encarnacion 3b
Ross c
Arroyo p

Wasn't surprised Ken Griffey's back. He's feeling a lot better. I know because he was giving me guff after Sunday's game. Asked Jerry Narron why Josh Hamilton was playing over Ryan Freel. "Wanted to get another left-hander in there." Hamilton's on a 0-for-7 with four Ks. But all that was against leftt-handers. Right-hander Matt Albers is starting for the Astros. Freel will likely play Wednesday. He's one of the few Reds will good numbers vs. Roy Owsalt.

Dunn dropping like a rock in the lineup. A homer here and there just isn't enough. I believe that trading him is a perfect option. I mean we won't be able to afford him soon anyway.

Love the Blog, but is it too time consuming to type the letter I, as in I asked...?'' It sounds so much better to use proper English. Please try it.
