Cincinnati Reds - Waiting for a Miracle to Happen (LWWLL)
Going in the game, Cincinnati Reds are struggling to find their game form, which seems a matter of concern for all. In the first game, only M. Reynolds was able to score 1 RBI, and apart from that, it was a tough batting lineup. K. Farmer and T. Friedl tried their best to contribute later in the play, which was quite decent. For the upcoming game, I guess the pitchers will be retained without making any changes to the lineup.
Expected Opening Lineup for Cincinnati Reds
- 2B Matt Reynolds
- C Tyler Stephenson
- LF Tommy Pham
- 1B Joey Votto
- SS Kyle Farmer
- DH Mike Moustakas
- 3B Taylor Motter
