Votto has been out a lot and Phillips had a great May (1.074 OPS in may). 2B don't hit like that and Phillips has played some great defense while crushing the ball. The only Red to hit better in May was Votto, who also played 6 fewer games than Phillips. WAR season total (which includes defense) 1.7 Phillips 1.5 Votto 1.2 Hairston, Harang, Cueto 1.1 Bruce .8 Cordero and Nix Annapolis I agree, Phillips has probably been the teams MVP so far this season.

If I were a player, I'd rather have the extra days off, methinks.

He tries to hit the ball to Lexington and continues to walk away from the plate with that foolish smile on his face as if it were funny that he once again looked like he was mistified by what just happened. Can't someone on the REDS get through to this guy on how to be successful at the plate. He has been mashing the ball but he is capable of so much more, more in the clutch when we really need him. Our two catchers have shown more leadership than Brandon. I hate to complain after a win but Brandon Phillips upsets me so much because he doesn’t benefit from all his physical ability.
