I'm certainly no fan of Bowden either, and you guys know that, but
Kearns hit .315 in 107 games that year. The rest of the 2002 Reds
outfielders were Dunn (LF, played in 158 games), Juan Encarnacion (CF,
played in 83 games), Reggie Taylor (135 games as part-time LH hitter
in a lineup that already had Dunn, Casey, Walker hitting from the left
side), Griffey (only played 70 games due to injury), Jose Guillen (hit
..248 in 31 games), Ruben Mateo (20 Ks in 86 AB), Brady Clark (.152),
and Wily Mo (.222).
What was Bowden supposed to do, dig up Ted Kluszewski?
