Is he out of options? Seems like he would be.

Actually, when Leake is pitching, Stubbs should bat 9th. Not even close to joking.
Meaning Dusty would be channeling the ghost of Larussa? Never!

It's a good point. I think you even bat Leake 7th.

Charlie Sheen apparently ran the bullpen session today.

I don't know that I'd give up on Bray, but he needs work. And putting him in during close games isn't the way to get it to him. He really should be in Louisville. But I think he may be out of options.

Bray hasn't been getting a lot of work. Dusty immediately throwing him in a high leverage situation upon his return a couple weeks back was one of the more idiotic things he's cooked up all year.

Leake should be leading off and playing CF when he isn't pitching.

Fraizer should have ran at Ellis.

Walt has messed up the roster pretty bad. I wouldn't throw everything on Dusty.

They almost blew that rundown on the very first throw.

Scully said the Reds did a poor job with the rundown.
