Biggio shouldn't even be in the big leagues

He's still doing that here, but he's not hitting yet. If he was hitting at his usual .250 rate he'd probably have an OBP over .400, but even now his OBP is around league average because he takes walks. Same thing with the Canha move, they've clearly tried to move toward being an offense that takes pitches and shows more patience.

This is not a professional line up.

It’s sickening.

Fans will voice their opinions by not attending.

I might cancel my $20 a month FanDuel subscription if this keeps up.

But I was told they really tried hard this offseason to improve! They tried, guys!

India played in a hitters park. India does actually suck. If he was your 8th or 9th hitter, it might be ok. But you cannot depend on him to bat the most per game in your line.

The Reds stadium is a total bandbox but it's not like he's a home run hitter. Even when you factor in the ballpark he still graded out as an average to above average offensive player. He's not a superstar but he does a lot of things you want from a leadoff guy.

You don't put a guy who walks as much as he does at the bottom of your order. You put him in front of Bobby and let him get on base. He is still taking walks, not striking out and his average on balls in play is low. Of all the guys on this offense he's the one that you could see turning it around given his stats so far.

Nah, I'll let the wife endure that pain. Who knows, maybe she'll show up on a day the other team forfeits?

Total shitshow.

If he does turn it around it will be on the back of slap singles. They just pinned all of their hopes on offense on a guy the Reds wanted to get rid of. If they played him at second, batted him 8th or 9th he would be a good guy to have on the team. However, them playing him at a corner OF and batting him first is no bueno.

He’s fine. Slap singles are fine from the lead off spot.
The main issue is , no one is hitting on this team other than
Witt. Vinny and Salvy have so far disappointed. Everyone else is just a black hole at the plate for the most part.

You are a reerun. India is fine for a leadoff hitter

I really am hoping once the schedule lightens up a bit (almost all playoff teams), we will start to bounce back, but man, the hitting woes on this team are unbearable. No where to go but up! (Hopefully)
