    Ondrusek has now appeared in 17 of 30 games. I hope he holds up.

    Freddie Lewis, learning fast, fans. Ninth inning.

    Is the offense to blame yet?

    There is just about no stat that can be produced (other than W/L) that will describe the Reds as a .500 or worse team, unless specific things are being isolated.

    The team ERA is .9 runs worse than the team xFIP.

    The Reds are close to the lead in the NL in runs scored.

    I am as frustrated as anybody in the world about this team right now, especially living in Illinois and surrounded by Cubs and Cardinals fans. But I am optimistic that a breakout will happen in the near future.

    Breakout could happen if Cueto and Bailey pitch well and if Scott Rolen comes back healthy. Rolen's absence really hurts this lineup.

    Bottom of the ninth. A few hits wouldn't hurt.

    Reds, Astros, and White Sox are tied for fewest saves this year so far with just 4 each. That could change in about 10 minutes.

    The defense has gone from "most runs in the majors", to "most runs in the NL" to "2nd in the NL in runs" / "close to the lead in runs scored in the NL". Since the first 5 games, things have been trending downward. At breakneck speed.

    They need to pick it up. Everywhere.
