Is Broxton available? He was hurting recently and hasn't pitched forever.
If Reds have a big lead toward the end, wouldn't be surprised to see big Jon tonight.

Hanigan grounds out to a diving Barney at 2nd.
Arroyo flies out to center on the 1st pitch.
Cozart grounds out to short.

Reds up 4, Arroyo at 103 pitches, rested pen, Arroyo not exactly mowing them down but he hits for himself, top of lineup coming up. Wow. He better be on a short leash.
I know there is a doubleheader coming up but wow.
Great play

You know that Barney kid ain't a bad player - if he had a bit better stick he'd be something
Don't really feel comfortable here with the way the Cubs touched up our bullpen last week. Hopefully GABP plays more in their favor than Wrigley did that day.
“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”
Gameday reports Arredondo coming in.
Once Reds clear Soriano and Castro, I'd look for Marshall and Chapman.
really wish Bronson coulda gone this inning but it looked like he was gassed pretty much - Dusty moved just in time
Don't call my name, don't call my name - Arredondo
“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”
With a doubleheader tomorrow, it would behoove the Reds to get through this game with as little bullpen activity as possible.
Eric Stratton, Rush Chairman. Damn glad to meet ya.
