    Live Late Breaking News (Arroyo)


    Bulletin

    ST. LOUIS -- Bronson Arroyo's cornrows are no more.

    "I was giving them two opportunities to get a win and they did their job," he said. "We’ll probably leave them out for a while."

    I had the same reaction. Think we're on edge, guys?
    There is no such thing as a pitching prospect.

    My first thought when reading the title was a big announcement about him finally getting his tenth win.

    From RotoWorld:

    Bronson Arroyo - Starting Pitcher Aug. 17 - 1:39 am et

    Bronson Arroyo snapped a 10-start winless streak with seven strong innings Wednesday as the Reds routed the Cards 7-2.

    Perhaps the anonymous gift of 10 red roses he found in the clubhouse before game inspired Arroyo. Whatever the reason, his four-hit, one-run effort was much needed for both the Reds and Arroyo. He had been mired in an 0-5, 5.29 slump since last winning on June 19. In winning his 10th game of the season, Arroyo lowered his ERA to 3.45.

    No, your on the edge when your a cleve browns fan. The reds are all I have in sports right now..

    Some people play baseball. Baseball plays Jay Bruce.
