I think that's a good idea for spring of next year. Perhaps his value is better as a starter with that breaker.

I don't know but it does make me wonder if you couldn't put a starting rotation together from the Reds BP that would be better then what some other teams throw out there.

Sounds like it could be a decent starting 5.

so close.


At the very least, I applaud the Reds for making a run of it here.

Re: 8/18 Game Deux - Reds at Cubs
I was thinking Stubbs might want to bunt in that spot, Cubs a good bet to mess it up.

Oh well, still the ninth inning with maybe a pinch hitter, Phillips, Ludwick.
