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.

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.

Yep. Every game a nail biter.

True. But getting Rolen out of the lineup was huge as well.

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.

Let's mess with a good thing and insert Chapman into the rotation.

Just leave that one alone till next year folks.

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.

And I'd argue the FO has been negligent with him to this point. But yes, right now, you just gotta let it ride.
