Arroyo looking GREAT. Let's see what the second pass through the lineup yields. Interested to see Votto in this AB.

You know what happened to Samson. I wouldn't risk it.

No. He is Samson. Cutting his hair would take away his mojo.

I just wanted to agree with everyone that has already said this, but:
Arroyo's stuff is sick tonight. Wow.

Re: NLDS Game 2 - Reds at Giants 10/7/12
The "experienced vet" argument carries more weight in some cases than others, but I think that after his career with his much-beloved Sox (pitching mediocrely, mostly out of the pen), and just the one postseason blip with the Reds, Arroyo is determined not to let this chance get away from him. He's 35; he won't have many more chances. And he has the presence of mind to stay calm and back it up with stuff. with salad.
