I understand giving Cozart a rest occasionally, but Frazier is playing well and has not played a whole heckuva lot.

Misguided attempt at levity.

I get mad at the whole idea of bunting after Arroyo walked on 4 pitches, and Stubbs took the first two for balls. He was going to get something decent to hit, and we wasted an out.... I blame Dusty, since if he doesn't know that Stubbs isn't a great bunter by now, he must be asleep. Even if it works, its not a great move.

Re: 5/28/12 Reds Vs Pirates

This game is getting out of hand.

Odd, I've never seen a "get away" lineup on the opening game of a series, but this seems like one.

Certainly feels that way. Something to be said for trying to win game 1 of a road series.

Game is not over yet, but it is starting to get less likely we make a game of it.
