    I was referring to trying to come up with a reason after the fact that it was unintelligent by the manager to not have Cordero pitch the top of the 10th inning in Milwaukee. That is what you should let go of. I am sure that cordero is having bull pen sessions to keep in shape.

    We spent a lot of money on a closer, some say its good, some say its bad. I feel like you are saying we need to run him out there more, because he costs us more money. Is that correct?

    Cordero not pitching last night and Coffey pitching last night are two completely seperate issues. If you don't want coffey on the team, I have no problem with that. However thinking that if Coffey was off the team and someone else had his spot, that Cordero would have pitched last night - that is foolish.

    If the Reds were in more closing situations then you wouldn't have to worry about Coco's playing time. No sense of wasting him if the Reds are getting beat like last night. Unless the game is tied, they're down by a run (if you absolutely need him), or there's a save situation. Then you reall shouldn't use Coco.

    Yah, he really screwed it up when the Reds had the bases loaded last night.

    are you being sarcastic? Please tell me you are. The cubs made two great plays to get out of the inning (a diving second basemen flipping the ball with his glove, and a great stop by Derek Lee to turn two).

    That catch by the 2nd baseman cost the Reds 1 run and an out. I really don't see how that was Dusty's fault
