Re: 5-23-12 vs Braves
Unbelievable homer by Frazier! This is an awesome run that the Reds are on. Two from the Yankees and 3 from the Braves...just amazing.

Re: 5-23-12 vs Braves
Don't think it has anything to do with Rolen out of the lineup. The offense has still been pretty weak. They've done it with outstanding and consistent pitching.

Re: 5-23-12 vs Braves
If the Reds get this pitching all year they will win the Central easily.
It's much easier for bats to heat up than bad pitching to straighten out. |

Re: 5-23-12 vs Braves
I've told this before, but I'd kind of like to hear it again myself. My old coach once told me that there is no tomorrow. And yesterday is gone in baseball. If it works don't fix it. I think I agree with Kal and my old coach.

Looks like it's 8-4 since his last appearance.

Re: 5-23-12 vs Braves
And I'd argue the FO has been negligent with him to this point. But yes, right now, you just gotta let it ride.
