Re: 4/28/12 - Reds vs Astros

Wonder if Marshall will finish this ballgame to give him some work after the blown save against the Giants.

Could also be Lecure. Simon. Even Hoover.

Would save Arredondo and Chapman and I wouldn't push Logan another inning.

Chapman warming up. I don't really get using Chapman with a 6 run lead

I know. It just seems like Votto Phillips, and Bruce are struggling against them this year. Haven't done any research yet.

What is wrong with Heisey? He's not my favorite by any means, but he is not doing it so far.

Votto .899, Buce .780, Phillips .452.

Really small samples.

Hanigan strikes out swinging. 6-0 Reds after 8.

Reds out. On to the 9th with the Missle on the mound. I don't know why, but that's the way it is.

Re: 4/28/12 - Reds vs Astros

What is the big deal for him to close out a game for? Have to complain about something or anything Dusty does I guess....beacuse everything has been too great so far.

These guys strike out way too much for as little walk ability as they have ....save Votto and Hanigan.

It's not a horrible move, but they don't need him. I'd rather use somebody like Lecure and save Chapman for tomorrow when it might be a one run game.

Kind of like using a gun to kill a fly IMO. Why waste the bullets when a fly swatter will do?

I think he can handle one inning today....unless he implodes like last year.....in that inning against the Cards....and still come back the next day. He has to go 2 days in a row eventually if he is going to be in the bullpen.
