The best lineup would have Reynolds back out in the OF, McKinney in CF instead of Bae, Grandal the DH.

IDK if McKinney can play CF. If not, have Taylor out there instead of Bae. I'm more confident in him as a CF, and does it really matter which one is at bat, neither of them can hit.

Grandal is one of the hotter hitters and Shelton needs to have him in the lineup every day. Just not as the catcher.

it seems like Reynolds dh's at least once a week. We don't have enough good outfielders to use him there that often.

1-0 Reds already with a Stephenson HR.

Bullpen game for the Reds.

Toronto has a 7:07 start time. Kind of odd. Maybe it's because they use the metric system.

It allows time for both national anthems.

Bucs looking wanting at the plate in the first two innings. Still 1-0 Reds.

Alright, he proves me wrong by flying out to short right field.
