I don't think you do, cause that curve he's been flipping up there is prototypical junk. And you took exception to it being referred to as so.

Re: 7/13/12 - Reds vs Cardinals

Arroyo is a junkballer. He throws all sorts of garbage up there.

Wainwright is not throwing garbage.

The term 'junk' is not synonymous with 'garbage', that is what you don't seem to be understanding here.

Re: 7/13/12 - Reds vs Cardinals

With no one on would anyone else have let Latos go one more inning?

Not sure why Latos was pulled? Hurt?

97 through 5.....but he's been pretty good.
