Now if he pulls Simon right now, I agree....should've pinch hit someone.

Thom just asked the longest question in the history of mankind.
2014 Reds record: 1-2
I look like a banker in this...
LeCure in. Yep, baffling move.
And of course he takes Simon out.
Maybe Simon was the hottest hand on the bench. We don't know how the players are feeling, only Dusty does.
Is it "next season" yet?
and Lecure is pitching????
Ok. I'm totally confused. Why let Simon bunt???
Only possible reasoning is that he's already used Lutz. He wants to save his other players, Izturis, Mes, Robinson, Hannahan for later. Still early.
Figured that all he wants is a bunt, why use up a hitter.
That must be the rationale. I completely disagree with it.
Have to save Izturis, Hannahan, and Robinson for all the other pinch hitting chances that will come up.
Baker at his best. Sheesh...
