But Latos is very effective and is still young. Has the makings of an ace IMO.
2010 - averaged 5.94 innings per start
2011 - averaged 6.26 innings per start

Hopefully the trend continues.

Re: 5/17/12 - Reds @ Mets

Two Ks to start the inning by Latos.

This kid throws like a real starting pitcher. Win or lose today, I'm very pleased with Latos.

Nuenheis singles, Wright up.

Re: 5/17/12 - Reds @ Mets

Interesting scout stat that just popped up on Gameday. Latos holds batters to a .208 average within the first 45 pitches. They hit .340 after that.

Another high count inning, 19 in the 3rd, and he's up to 56 already.

Yeah, but he has five strikeouts in three innings. He should be good for six, possibly seven.

Stubbs Ks, which happens sometimes.

Re: 5/17/12 - Reds @ Mets

Teams are going to start intentionally walking Votto with nobody on. That will force Walt and Dusty's hand on the cleanup spot.

No it won't. Dusty will insist on a right handed veteran hitter there.

Well, maybe we'll get a better right handed veteran hitter.

Re: 5/17/12 - Reds @ Mets

Votto is the only one who can hit a knuckler apparently. There's your run Latos. Holdem.
