Wonder why he doesn't play more?

Frazier's home run was a missle. But couldn't hold a candle to Alvarez's throw to first.

Latos strikes out the side.

Re: 5/6/12 - Reds at Pirates
Good inning by Latos. Fans the side.
I don't think they will dump Harris. Do they really want no lefty bats on the bench? But it all doesn't make a lot of sense. Why should Harris' lefthandedness allow him to stay despite very poor hitting? The answer is that the Reds should make multiple changes, even small ones. They could trade Ludwick or Heisey for a lefty bat. Then, send out Harris and keep Frazier. The offense needs some re-working, even if the moves are relatively minor. Another option is to send down Harris and give him some at bats. He'll get it going, then he could come back. |

Re: 5/6/12 - Reds at Pirates
I think they want to keep the lefty on the bench but how in the world do you keep a guy who has 2 hits on the year. If they want a LH bat on the bench Walt needs to go get someone else
