Hoover looks to be Baker's early pick for middle reliever. That likely means LeCure is the other RH set-up man with Broxton.
While I don't agree with it, I understand his thinking.

A bit surprised Parra didn't go three innings, but it's early in the season and he hasn't had much work.
I believe Manny's ability to multiple innings gave him an edge over Arredondo in the spring training competition.
I'd give Manny a solid B for his pitching tonight. B+ for his hitting.
I thinks its a good call by Dusty to get Hoover in for some low pressure pitches.

Great to see Bruce go the other way ....and even if he did not get a hit, when he starts doing that it bodes well for a hot streak from him. That's all I hope he continues to do and not fall into the pull everything habit.
Marshall being saved for a closer game? I would imagine.
Well that was a blast.

It was nice to see them being successful on the two-point conversion!
How do you pick 3 stars of the game today?
Reds pitchers have given up 10 earned runs in four games. Even better, Latos, Cueto, and Bailey all looked liked top of the line starters, and Arroyo looked like Arroyo always does.
