Meh Arroyo will be fine. Least of the Reds worries right now.

Really it doesn't, but if you post a fact and it is wrong, just acknowledge it and move on. Don't try to knock the guy who pointed it out (not me) down a notch.

Re: 5/23/11 - Reds at Phillies

The thought that bothered me most today was that it amazed me how fast we have blown threw our starting pitching "surplus". May 23, and we are probably gonna start Chad Reinicke on Friday...didn't see that coming.

Re: 5/23/11 - Reds at Phillies

Can we bring up Leake for Volquez's next start, he will have passed the 10 days by then won't he?

I understand the reasoning, but I'd like to see the evidence. It just seems like the chances of a big inning would be greater when you have a string of Stubbs, Phillips, Votto, Rolen and Bruce than when there are rest periods in between for the pitcher.

Mike Leake has given up 3 runs in 2 innings in AAA tonight and currently has an ERA of 9.82.

Have fun with that one.

I'm pretty sure, but it sounds like the front office doesn't view that as the best option.

Oh I'm not advocating it, just wondering if thats one of the options or not.

Re: 5/23/11 - Reds at Phillies

Arroyo threw 78 pitches in 2.2 innings.

That's awesome.

Re: 5/23/11 - Reds at Phillies

This could be a long 4 days in Philly, having to face to Hammels, Halladay, and Lee in 3 of the games.

Hopefully San Diego can help out against St. Louis, or the Reds could be in quite a hole come June.

Re: 5/23/11 - Reds at Phillies

I personally would just throw Lecure into Volquez's next start, since he is on the rest schedule for that start now with how much he pitched after Volquez left. Then bring Willis up after he has healed up.

We all love BP personally I think...but I don't like seeing the smile down 9-0.

Shoot me.

Re: 5/23/11 - Reds at Phillies

Yeah I'd throw LeCure and bring up Boxberger from AA and put him in Maloney's spot in the pen.
