Re: 8-12-12 @ Chi Town
I really don't like Chapman trying to overpower guys when he's on his 3rd consecutive day pitching... No reason for him to be in the game right now.

Re: 8-12-12 @ Chi Town
This is the third straight outing for Chapman. I'm ok with it, he had a long rest during the five game losing streak.

Still, after that lead off hit, I'd have somebody warming up. Marshall and a righty.

I agree, but Dusty doesn't and neither does my dad. I'll just blame my dad if it doesn't work.

Heh. Entering the inning, the Reds had a 96% chance of winning the game.

He's been 2-3 mph off his typical speeds....until those 101's to Soriano.

Re: 8-12-12 @ Chi Town
99% of the other managers in baseball would've also used Chapman today, so we're really going to bash Dusty over the head with this?

Barrett Browning now pitching for the Cardinals. I sure hope he's a gun enthusiast....that's a heck of a name.

An ERA based on 14 IP was flipped up on the board without proper qualification, that's all. Nothing personal, just wish it had been noted.
