The Reds batted out of order in the ninth inning of their 8-3 loss Sunday to the New York Mets. Backup catcher David Ross came to the plate to lead off the inning and lined out. But the batter in the No. 8 spot should have been outfielder Corey Patterson, with Ross hitting ninth after an earlier double switch. Patterson was charged with the out, which officially counts as a putout by the catcher, and Ross came up again. This time, he singled. (Updated 05/12/2008).

Fantasy Analysis
Ross is nothing more than a reserve catcher for the Reds at this point. Consider him a potential power source at the position in deeper NL-only leagues, though. Patterson is nothing more than a source of steals in deeper Rotisserie formats. He could lose his job to top prospect Jay Bruce by June 1. (Updated 05/12/2008).
