I guess BP isn't quite ready. Or maybe his contract is so big that the Reds are just afraid to let him play!
Even though Harris is limited, I like the top of the order today. Harris, Cozart, Votto, Bruce should mount some attack. All the team's lefties, nearly in a row. Hopefully, the right handed brigade that follows them will do something too Stubbs OPS is so low that I hope the famous "law of averages" takes over for today's outing. I'm predicting the Reds will score some runs today, which itself is worth the price of admission. Up to Bailey. |

Re: 4/14/12 Reds @ Nationals 4:05 start
So, who in that bullpen is available today. Lecure and Arredondo I'd assume, but probably not for more than an inning. Bray? Had a short outing, but can he go back to back days yet. Simon? Probabaly not. Ondrusek? He went an inning and two-thirds and was just rested Friday for too much work. Not sure about him. Marshall? He should be good to go. I wonder if the Reds were trying to save Chapman to come in if Bailey falters and to let him go 4 or 5 innings if need be. Since he went an inning yesterday, I'm not sure about that now.

Homer's pitches really moving today. Don't know that I've ever seen that out of him.
