The Reds were 15-15 on May 8th last year. They went 18-11 in May with starting pitching leading the way. The offense is still at the top of the league in most categories. This is the same team but without the same performance from starting pitchers thus far. If Cueto and Bailey can help stabilize the rotation the offense will provide enough runs to win games.Originally Posted by Kc61

I'd rather listen to Kelch read the phone book than suffer through Thom Brennaman's attempt to make every instance on the field the most important event since the discovery of manned space flight. -westofyou
I'm calling it now. Valaika is hitting for the cycle today.

Suddenly Cueto is the best pitcher.
I thought Arroyo was the best pitcher. Or Volquez.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
Perhaps we should start looking ahead to 2012?

Huh? Statistically Cueto was the Reds best pitcher last year with Arroyo right behind him.
Reds fail to score again. Somebody let me know when this game becomes the offense's fault.
THEY'VE BATTED THREE TIMES.
Good God.
Yes, it is tough to break through against Sandy Koufax without going through the lineup a few times.
Somebody is grumpy today.
It's not the Astros. They just got their fifth hit, a line drive single.

Would you trade the Reds lineup for the Astros?
