Against this pitcher, Bruce should be hitting cleanup. That was not a good effort by Brandon.

Phillips is streaky. Bad streak today caused by impatience

I agree whenever Bruce is hot he should be hitting 4th but he has to learn some consistency before Dusty will ever get over the consecutive lefties thing.

Phillips is a good player, but he should hit sixth.
I thought that inning was classic Reds offense. Do a little damage but come up short. Three base runners, just about the Reds limit these days. Without the homer, inning ultimately evaporates.

With runners on the other day he watched a first pitch meatball go by. I expected a hack today.

Another homer. Downs homers to right center.
Re: 4/29/12 - Reds vs Astros
Ok I've seen enough of Latos for today.
Re: 4/29/12 - Reds vs Astros
That was a GABP cheapie special.
Re: 4/29/12 - Reds vs Astros
Dusty. Latos allowed four runs in five innings. You had a lead off hit last inning.
Stop looking at pitch counts. When behind in the middle innings and your pitcher isn't doing well, use a pinch hitter. Go to the pen.
The idea is not to lose but save your bullpen. The idea is to win, even if the pen must be used.
Re: 4/29/12 - Reds vs Astros
Latos has been living in the upper half of the zone. If somebody pulls up the pitch F/X for him today, it'll be rather top-heavy.
And yeah, he should've got yanked for the PH last inning.
