If that happens we will be in big trouble. Did he pitch in winter ball this year?

Indeed. Need to lock him in the park with Bruce and Stubbs and neither gets out until they go opposite field about 50x in batting practice.

Lol....especially Bruce

Stubbs is so worried about striking out he just swings at everything close. Would like to see Stubbs average without all the 3 hoppers to the SS/3B that he somehow beats out.

Cueto is in great shape. They said he switched from the stationary bike to hard road work this year.

Cueto threw a 174 innings at age 22....he's 26 for God's sake. You don't shut a guy down because he is too effective.

Has a team in a playoff hunt EVER shut down an ACE over the age 25? Who has ever shut their ace down in a pennant race....ever? Cueto is beginning the prime of his career....pitch him like he's your best...cause he is.

Rolen looks like a different person than he did before the DL.

Well we needed that one. We all know who the star of the game was. Now we need Latos to quit fooling around.

Actually, you wish that the Reds would go 0-162 so that Sun Deck could stand in awe at what is now known to be your utter horse ****

Re: Reds vs. Twins Saturday 6/23

How is Paul Janish (OPS-.946) still in Louisville and Willie Harris still in Cincinnati?
