Re: 5/23/10 Reds @ Indians - It's just another game

A little information going into todays game....


Reds going for the 1st ever sweep of Cleveland on the road.

Reds have won 4 in a row against Cleveland and 12 of 15.

Reds win puts them 8 over .500, 1st time since June 30th 2006

Reds have won 18 out of their last 25

Starters improved to 10-1 with a 2.56 ERA in the last 14 games

Bailey has surrendered two runs over 16 innings in his past two starts after giving up 14 runs in his previous three, spanning 16 2-3 innings.

Homer is 2-0 with a 6.91 ERA in three starts against the Indians, failing to pitch more than five innings in any outing.

In two starts against the Reds last season, Huff was tagged for 13 runs and 16 hits in eight innings.

Joey Votto(notes) is 3 for 4 with a pair of homers against Huff while Ramon Hernandez(notes) is 4 for 5 with a home run

Re: 5/23/10 Reds @ Indians - It's just another game

This is my favorite line-up of the season so far. Against a RH, I'd move Rolen to 2nd, Bruce to 4th and Phillips to 6th.

Gomes power in the middle of the order really makes a lot of other things fit better. Makes me wish we had the DH in the NL (biting my tongue as I type that).

And yet Hanigan gets the start (not that I'm complaining).

The Reds play 10 more days in a row before an off day. They could use another pitcher short-term.

“Yeah, but who’s going to be sent out,” Baker said. “Who deserves to be sent out? I came under much scrutiny when I sent (Mike) Lincoln out there. But I knew I was going to be in this situation where we’re upside down.
How about a HITTER! You're not using Cairo or Janish...send one down and bring up an arm you doofus! (And I LIKE Baker *grin*)

Day game after a night game almost always means a catching change.

And a sample size a a few AB's isn't likely meaningful.

Yep. Keeping their legs, knees & backs strong is much more important that hitting matchups.

Re: 5/23/10 Reds @ Indians - It's just another game

IIRC, Huff was the pitcher at the game I went to in Cleveland last season where the Reds beat him up for like six or seven runs in about five innings and ended up winning the game 7-1 (Micah was the winning pitcher). Let's hope they beat him up again!
