Reds opening day roster

I have seen several possible lineups posted, but this is one I have seen more often:

CF Freel
LF Dunn
2B Phillips
RF Griffey
3B Encarnacion
1B Hatteberg
SS Gonzalez
C Ross
P Harang

I have read Narron wants to have a RLRL sown his lineup, but Dunn in the 2 hole is stupid. I thought the point in that spot was to protect and move the baserunner. Why would he want Dunn in a position that takes away his strengths and really shows his strikeouts. I can see 2 scenarios all season.

1. Freel gets a hit. Dunn strikes out and Freel is thrown out at second on a hit and run. Nobody on and 2 outs.
2. Freel gets a hit. Dunn strikes out. Phillips hits into double play. Inning over.

Either way, Dunn is not the man for that position. He needs to be 4th or fifth. Men on base hitting a 2 or 3 run homer.
