Norris Hopper will start in center and bat leadoff on Friday night, the Cincinnati Enquirer notes. | February 25, 2008
Either Norris Hopper or Ryan Freel will likely bat leadoff this season, according to a report in the Cincinnati Enquirer. "I hope one or the other is in the game," said manager Dusty Baker when asked who would bat leadoff for the squad. The upshot of this statement appears to be that phenom Jay Bruce likely won't make the team since he was vying for the CF position that Baker said would most likely be filled be Freel or Hopper. Given Baker's leanings toward veteran ballplayers, it would seem that Bruce would have an uphill battle making the squad out of camp. |
