    Volquez should have a big day against this lineup hopefully. I am hoping the Reds can handle this kid Balester. He is a hard thrower and new to the league, the Reds do well against fastballers but they make rookies look like Cy Young reincarnate.

    Anybody have a problem with Webb being the NL starter for the ASG? Just curious.

    Sure, Edinson & Lincecum both have solid cases too. I was just wondering if anybody really questions that choice. I, personally, would've been fine with any of those 3.

    Kepp with a grounder to SS. 2 down.

    I was told that this kid had a great fastball. Haven't seen it yet. Right around 90-92 or so.
