    All 3 runs that scored? Got on base via the walk.

    Leave it to volquez to snap the string of quality starts. Against a glorified AAA team at that

    He's our "stopper". Just not in a good way. He actually stopped our starter's scoreless streak too.

    Oh yeah...a K to end the inning. 3-0 Houston.

    Sadly, he can still get a "quality" start, which begs how quality a quality start really is.

    Even the swings and misses he gets are out of the strike zone.

    Edinson Volquez: Million dollar arm, ten cent pitching mind
    Hope isn't a strategy

    Personally, I think an interesting stat for Volquez would be how many pitches per game hit where the glove is set up at.

    Votto with a triple into the RF gap!

    With an off day tomorrow i'd pull Volquez now and let LeCure go 3-4 innings. At least 3 runs is possible against Wandy. Any more than that and they should let Volquez throw 180 pitches, which sadly may not enable him to throw a complete game.

    5 thus far.
    That 5th walk now gives him 4 out of 8 starts in which hes walked at least 5 batters.

    What a frustrating game.
    This is the ol Left Hander rounding third and heading for home.

    Razor JUST misses a dinger. Crushed it! High off the wall. So hard it's only a single.
