Lucky it wasn't back-to-back shots. Hoover's time in the big leagues is running out.

Eric Stratton, Rush Chairman. Damn glad to meet ya.
I think Hoover is going down after tonight. Guy has decent stuff but can't locate right now.
See ya soon meat.
This is the time. The real Reds organization is back.
Hoover might be just fine but he is just another guy in a long line of recent Reds who should teach us not to go all in immediately on guys with limited time to show their stuff.
never thought i'd say this but after watching hoover get torched again....maybe a trip to AAA is in order to get straightened out. his location is horrible right now.
Another rope, this one right to Heisey. Almost doubled up but it skips past Phillips.
Hoover is done. Parra in. *sigh* Color me unimpressed with Parra as well. We might be at the time to send Hoover to AAA to rebuild his confidence and bring up Arredondo. If he's legitimately corrected his walk problem, he'd be an asset. Anybody know how he's been doing at Louisville?
Hoover has good stuff, he's a good pitcher but he's all out of sorts right now. He needs to regain some confidence and control. Dusty never should have put him out there in that situation against that part of the line-up.
I see great things in baseball. It's our game.
We just don't win trades with Atlanta. I hope we never swap with them again.
“The crows seem to be calling my name,” thought Caw.
Should have left Leake in. Lets hope we don't see Hoover again till he's got his act back together in the minors.
LeCure was warming up several innings ago. I am surprised he didn't did pitch this inning.
