Dat Dude must be a "managers decision"

Preview from MLB.com. Homer pitches well down here. The importance of quality pitching cannot be overstated IMO. If I am a small-market GM, the emphasis is on pitching first, pitching second and pitching third.
when is the last time he had a day off without being injured? do not remember
BP will drive Dusty nuts in the dugout! Lol
No problem here with Phillips getting a day off and Valdez getting some playing time.
Wouldn't surprise me if Phillips is retrieving bats and stuff.
Dat Dude tweeted not happy but knows it for the best and he needs it.
should still be able to beat Houston without Phillips and Votto with Bailey pitching
Actually it is more like pitching first, pitching second and defense 3rd. The Reds pitchers, especially Bailey have lived off the defense lately.
I suspect a "struggling" start, something like 6I 3R variety with plenty of baserunners but yet count as a "quality start".
Was hoping to see Paul get another start, since the Reds are playing the AA-stros. He seems to have a nice approach at the plate, and doesn't go up there hacking, swinging at everyting close. He got 3 hits, was robbed of a 4th, and will probably not see another start. It's the fricken ASTROS for crying out loud. Give the kid some AB's.
why the quotes around quality start?
Quality starts give teams a chance to win games.
WTF was that Mes?
Interesting to see how many runs we score with this lineup tonight. No one hitting above .244 except Frazier.
