Is the "this is going to help the offense" spin machine still working, or has Yost admitted Kendall isn't the great hitter he once was yet (though so far, in a small sample size, he's doing pretty good)?

Which will only make Cueto's 7 inning, 3 hit, 8k performance all that more impressive

I'd take that, but I do not expect him to throw a gem every time out. I look for 6 IP 7 H 3 ER 6 K. A quality start is all I'm asking.

Best 3, 4, 5 in the NL? Or did we just face it last series?

It's close.

I may give a slight edge to the Phillies, though.

That's the last 3/4/5 I'd want to see for the Reds. I'm sure there are better 5 hitters than Hall, but that guy kills us.

Bill Hall definitely has been the epitome of Reds Killer the last 3+ years.

To the tune of .301/.377/.589, 10 HRs in 163 ABs.

Hopefully Cueto changes the performance of Bill Hall.
