Drew Stubbs went 0-2 with 2 more walks. He is now 2-7 on the year with 6 walks and 2 strikeouts. Its early, but its very promising. I really like him being out of the leadoff spot. I think its going to do him wonders.

There is something special going on in Louisvilles second game heading to the 7th.

I jinxed nothing. I didn't put in Ricky Stone.

The Reds still have Ricky Stone?

Great. I bet we see him before the end of the year.

Glad to hear about Belisle. Think his next start will be in Louisville?

Good to see Reed hitting, he had a rough few games to start the season.
