The real Johnny Cueto has arrived, folks. That's four straight very good starts by Mr. Cueto. I'd like to see him get bumped to Chattanooga after the All-Star break.
Jay Bruce doubles in his first atbat of the second game. That's 25 doubles already for Jay. He's now got 40 XBH (25 doubles, 5 triples, 10 homers) in 254 atbats, or one per 6.35 atbats. That is unreal, especially for a 20-year old kid in the FSL.
Sarasotas second game has started and Bruce hit his 25th double of the season.
Bruce doubles again - that's 26 doubles now.
He's 2-for-2 with two doubles.
Chattanooga is up 1-0 in the 6th
Gardner: 5 Innings, 1 Hit, 0 Runs, 1 BB, 2 K
Nice to see Bruce picking it up. He had cooled off in June.
Rob Neyer: "Any writer who says he'd be a better manager than the worst manager is either 1) lying (i.e. 'using poetic license') or 2) patently delusional. Which isn't to say managers don't do stupid things that you or I wouldn't."

Dayton won 3-0. Everyday Eddie with the save.
Jordan Smith went 8 innings, giving up 3 hits, no walks, and 2 K's.
Stubbs, 1 for 3, with 1 bb and 1 K. Also had his 14th stolen base of the year.
Francisco, Parker, and Cabrera with doubles.

FYI, he will go back to back and pitch in Louisville tomorrow. It sounds like he is getting close, and I am not going to lie, I am more scared then excited about that.
Also, Francisco make his 18th error tonight.
It would be horrible to move guys with that potential to the pen. Simply a waste. With Homer no longer being a prospect, Cueto and Watson are the best pitching prospects we have.
And considering Watson was a college reliever who the Reds have just converted to a starting pitcher, I don't see him going back anytime soon.
