Re: 5/5/12 - Reds at Pirates
65 pitches for Leake. This bullpen could be really well rested after the week weve had

Walker blasts one past Rolen for a leadoff single.

Re: 5/5/12 - Reds at Pirates
Pitching, rested or not, isn't the problem.

Re: 5/5/12 - Reds at Pirates
James McDonald progressing nicely. Pirates got him by trading a then 36 yr old Octavio Dotel. Talk about Value, what a STEAL! They might want to think about upping the ante to lock him up...don't know if they got the shells though

Re: 5/5/12 - Reds at Pirates
Nice slick play there from Cozart. Really nice. McCutchens' got some wheels.

Re: 5/5/12 - Reds at Pirates
Last year that was part of the problem. The bullpen was overused by the secoind half of the year. This year seems to be different. This will help come later in the year

Re: 5/5/12 - Reds at Pirates
Walk #4 from Leake. 1st & 2nd with 1 down. If there was anybody to pitch around, it was probably Alvarez (he'd been on fire lately).
