Re: 8/31/12 - Reds at Astros
Part of me wants to see the Reds lose tonight just so I can get a giggle out of the "Woe the sky is falling we lost to the Astros!" crowd lol.

Re: 8/31/12 - Reds at Astros
Wainwright sure isn't fooling anyone tonight. He's still in the game with 85 pitches in 2 2/3 innings. It's 6-0 right now with the bases loaded. He's given up a pair of walks and 9 hits.

Re: 8/31/12 - Reds at Astros
You don't need to pitch around any Astros hitters, Mike.

Re: 8/31/12 - Reds at Astros
With a base open, I'd pitch around Wallace with one out. No reason to give him anything to hit as he's their most competent hitter.

Nice, Leake made Paredes look silly.
