At least walt is in St. Louis at the cardinals love-fest and doesn't have to watch this.

Nice way to treat what is a sell-out crowd, or very close to it.

Re: 5/11/12 -- Nationals at Reds

Is there any spot in the batting order Scott Rolen can see more curveballs?

Nice to see them put a chink in Gio's armor at least.

When is enough enough? There is an insurmountable black hole in this lineup and it covers 3B and LF.

He's done I'd say. Was hoping they would steal his win. Not to be.

Dusty will give him a huge leash...he's an 8th hitter at best right now. He can't catch up to anything....age will do that to you

Re: 5/11/12 -- Nationals at Reds

Rolen is a very nice guy. But, he should be doing pre-game coaching seminars instead of acting overmatched at the plate. It's a surprise when he puts together even an acceptable professional AB.

He's behind in the count nearly every AB. Pitchers are pounding the strike zone on him.

Gonzalez tonight? Or were you referring to Rolen in general? Or Ludwick?
