Alonso has been impressive.

Most hitters are better on balls up in the zone. That's a different thing than being able to handle pitches down and in.

Leake done. Parra in.
Really well pitched game from Mike. He didn't have his best stuff but he fought his way through it. Well done.
Parra...as usual, color me nervous.

I think we all know that the Dodgers, St. Louis, Tampa, or even a middle of the road offense would have put up some runs on Kennedy today. He's not horrible, but he's miles from a shutdown pitcher at this point in his career. The Reds play like they've got a plane to catch because they do. Hack, hack, hack. Gotta make sure we check in to our hotel.
I don't understand taking your hat off for god bless America. It is not the national anthem.

All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!
