    No, but he seems to be struggling at the dish for some reason. Must be the lineup or the way they're pitching him.

    82 OPS+. Not really close to league average.

    Cards up 9-1 in the 3rd. Would be nice to have a game or 5 like that.

    He was hitting .289/.439/.500 coming into tonight. In what world is that struggling?

    I just don't see the Reds suddenly becoming a better team, offensively or defensively, by getting rid of Rolen at the moment. Not saying they shouldn't pursue a quality 3B, but giving the job to Miguel Cairo or whoever doesn't seem like a much of an upgrade.
    “I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”

    For Votto, yes.

    OPS an entire 8 points lower than it was last year.

    When Soriano is making good defensive plays in left you know it's not your night. This ND receiver is still throwing mid 90s! A good few games for him, but the Reds are definitely helping him out!

    Reds get a break as they are bringing in a reliever.
