Just like Marmol, he melts down like he did today, but he also teases when he's in the zone and is virtually unhittable.
    Walking the bases loaded with a wild Rule 5 pitcher on the mound is going to often result in a bases loaded walk and a lost game.

    Castillo grounds out to 3rd. Good pick by Votto. Reds win 6-4!

    Ugly win, but we need these until we get everyone back healthy

    You must be a Cubs fan, the ending was just fine. It just a bumpy ride and took too long to get there.

    Great win. I'm frustrated with the way the Reds have played lately, but it's a great sign when you can win while not playing anywhere near the level they are capable of.

    Just fine? Our elite closer blew a 4 run lead and had to be replaced with another guy who has struggled mightily this season and had to get a strikeout with the bases loaded to preserve a win over a bad team?

    Good grief, it's baseball. It's a 162-game season where that kind of comment could literally be made for every single team in the Majors at one time or another.

    Does that make it not true?

    The acrimony around here is almost unbearable. You have no point here. And I'm really just playing the role of Sisyphus by prolonging this pointless debate.

    Good win - go Reds. Enjoy your Saturday, all. Cheers.
