Re: 6.29.12 Reds @ SF Giants
Rolen looking pretty bad already. 0-12 with 7 K's in his last 12 ABs. I'm worried we're going to be looking at this all summer.

Rolen probably can still hit the weaker pitchers, just on know how and skill. Cain is a tall order for his slow bat.
You would think Cain would K a lot of these righty Reds power hitters, but you never know. Cozart certainly didn't strike out.

Fair debate?
I don't think anyone is suggesting hoping for the Cards.

Give Dusty & Scott a little credit. Dusty will either bench him, or Scott with retire. That whole vet-love and vet-respect thing is really overblown IMO.

I'm not as much worried about the numbers as how he looks. He's already taking those swings where it looks like he can't even fully extend due to the balky left shoulder. It's painful to watch.

Some folks want the Cards and Bucs to split all their games, that view was certainly expressed. That's kind of the traditional view for this situation.
That's what I was referring to.
I'm firmly in the Pirates camp, at least for this series.

I'm rooting for whoever is farthest away from US. So for tonight, it's the Cards.

Two out, one on, Posey up.
Re: 6.29.12 Reds @ SF Giants
Stolen base for Theriot. Man on second.
Man left stranded. Nothing for the Giants.
Re: 6.29.12 Reds @ SF Giants
Nothing doing for the Giants. 3-0 after 1.
Re: 6.29.12 Reds @ SF Giants
9-5 Pirates through seven. Bucs bullpen is tough.

Straighten that baby out Devin! That was a rocket. Foul by a foot.

Mesoraco K'd on a very good pitch.
