    Doumit lines a singles to center, two on, nobody out.

    Coco just tries to paint the black with that straight fastball. He's got no out pitch right now.
    Games are won on run differential -- scoring more than your opponent. Runs are runs, scored or prevented they all count the same. Worry about scoring more and allowing fewer, not which positions contribute to which side of the equation or how "consistent" you are at your current level of performance.

    I realize we don't want to use him today.

    But seriously... Chapman for closer. Dusty, make it happen.

    I've said it before and I'll say it again. Cordero is the reason the Reds wont go far in the playoffs. You simply can not put this guy on the mound with a one run lead in the playoffs.
    This is the ol Left Hander rounding third and heading for home.

    Big out
    All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!

    Milledge bunts too hard, Coco gets the force at third.

    95 mph, no break, middle of the plate, waist high. He's lucky that was just a single.

    Cordero's lack of skills never cease to amaze me

    Has Cordero threw anything other than a fastball today? He's got a great change-up, why doesn't he ever use it?
