I blame someone for that, reeks of "swing more with 2 strikes, protect the plate"

Re: 7/4 Reds vs. Giants (Encarnacion starting)

Could the Reds be on my 12-run plan today? Would 12 runs be enough to get a win?

Re: 7/4 Reds vs. Giants (Encarnacion starting)

Reuter is getting hit hard, even though that was an out. This one is going to last a while.

Harang was (and is) a big guy with a large frame. He was always projected to develop into a strong-stamina starter that should be able to regularly go 6-7 IP per start. The fact that he's developed exceptional command of his fastball and breaking ball at his size have allowed him to look dominant at times.

This isn't an exact science, but Harang at least had some phsyical tools that allowed him to potentially exceed where others of similar skill level might fail.

Re: 7/4 Reds vs. Giants (Encarnacion starting)

I know ther was really not that much mention of this but looking at the statistics LaRue was deserving of an all star selection or at worst should be the number 3 guy. I knew all along he wouldn't be picked but in the NL he is an awfully good catcher.
