Re: 5/23/11 - Reds at Phillies

Arroyo rolls up a double play ball to Ibanez to end the inning. But wait...the Reds are playing the shift on Raul Ibanez...into LF it goes. 3-0 Phils.

Re: 5/23/11 - Reds at Phillies

When everything is going your way that's a DP.When you've lost 5 in a row and nothing's going right it's a hit and another run scored.

Re: 5/23/11 - Reds at Phillies

Philly's the last team the Reds needed to run into right now.

And Arroyo just looks absolutely awful. Sigh...

You have no idea if this is true or not. I can't say I'm absolutely sure it would cost them a game (or three) and you can't say you're absolutely sure it wouldn't. Neither of us know for sure.

But it definitely COULD cost them a win. Janish can't hit and can't get on base. But he's likely going to get more ABs than a better hitter in a particular game if you bat him second. That could cost you a win very easily. If you need a punch-and-judy hitter like Janish in your lineup due to defense, you bat him eighth. Only Dusty (who I otherwise like) can't see this.

Thom's not saying it, but he is "just saying" the mono may still be bothering Arroyo.

Haha Howard can't score on that fly ball.

Our opening day starter is in AAA. Our No. 2 starter can't get anybody out. And it's May 23 and we don't have a starter that's pitched more than 7 innings.

That's not true. Cueto pitched into the 8th this year.

Well, time to tuck my kids into bed. Goodnight everyone. It's been real.

Glad to see the Reds have taken the last week off from playing good baseball. *Extremely frustrated*

Maybe he'll give that Royals reliever who gave up 14 a run for his money.

Our shortstop who can't hit has managed to draw a whopping FIVE walks all season.

Whoops, I said I was going to tuck my kids into bed. OK, enough Reds for tonight. Too frustrating.
