    I guess every time Ondrusek pitches posters have their fun.

    Two out now.

    Who is Dusty supposed to bring in here? Goodness gracious, no matter what he does he's going to get raked through the coals. He's managing the team with the best record in baseball. Maybe he knows what he's doing?

    If our 2nd worst reliever can't pitch with a 4 run lead in the 8th, then we don't need a 2nd worst reliever. I guess that's unpossible though.

    The 2nd worst reliever, who would probably be the 2nd best reliever on the majority of the other teams in the league!

    He should be mop up, aka Simon's role. This should be Arrendondo/Simon time.

    I'm totally fine with bringing in Ondrusek here. Is Cueto hurt?

    I'm starting to get you confused with Reds44 -- Are you running two accounts?

    Didn't look like anything major. I don't think he wanted to come out, Dusty and Lessard appeared to overrule him. He looked exhausted more than anything.

    Word. What's going on? All we need are the 3 best players on the team to be on the DL or missing games right now - geesh.

    You're absolutely exaggerating how bad Ondrusek is. He's not great, but the guy isn't actually Josias Manzanillo during his Reds tenure.

    Ondrusek got the job done. Who's next on the chopping block?
