The older I get - the better I was
and yes - I hate the Cardinals (Reds fan since 1958)
I miss Raisor
No he didn't. He didn't decide who went in when. He wasn't the guy who went out and pulled the pitcher (most of the time). I don't know of ANY pitching coach who's done that. If I'm wrong, I apologize...I obviously didn't follow the M's...but its a rare occasion when a PC pulls the pitcher.

I think Smith sent Bruce because Cozart was up next. Cozart is up 2-0 and they basically are pitching around him but 2-0 to Cozart or Heisey might as well be 0-2. He hacked at a breaking ball and tried to hit up in the air but all he can do is pop up stuff in the air when he flails like he does.
I would have PH for Cozart.....and then maybe you do not have to PH for Leake. At least Leake faces Andrew.

I had zero problem with them sending Jay there. I like the aggressiveness. Force the defense to make a play. If he'd had a normal slide (leading foot touching the plate) then he would've been safe.

No problem. Give me your bank account number and routing number...I'll forward it right away. :O) I promise I won't just post that info on facebook.

[Phil ] Castellini celebrated the team's farm system and noted the team had promising prospects who would one day be great Reds -- and then joke then they'd be ex-Reds, saying "of course we're going to lose them". #SellTheTeamBob
