I'll laugh if we come back to win by one...

Funny as in, "Haha, I'm going to kill myself."

I think the Reds should sign:

Re: Reds vs Marlins 5/4/09

Unless Aaron's spot comes up this inning...I send him out for the 7th. If his spot comes up...I PH. 99 Pitches isn't even close to too much for Harang. His limit should be around 120 or so.

I agree. When you can locate a 97 MPH fastball on the corners and add in a nasty curve, that's a recipe for success against any team.

The Marlins started to hit Harang last inning. I'd pull him.

Yeah he's good, but he's not Superman... 19 at-bats now (not counting Harang) and the Reds have gotten on base 3 times. That's bad.

Yep....4 of em intentional ball....

I'd tell him 7 is it, empty the tank.

Cool. 18th game in 25 where a quality start has been written against the Reds. But this one is legit, so, I guess it's funny.

It's also funny putting Phillips at clean-up against a righty with this kind of stuff. Hysterical. Double you over with laughter funny. So in the first, with a runner on third and one out, that must have been the highest of comedy.

Exactly. The Reds haven't faced Cy Young 25 times. It's the offense.

Phillips reaches on an infield single.
