Too much negativity. True enough, the facts being cited. But let's also remember the following incomplete list:

- We're at home
- Latos hates the Giants and tends to mow them down nicely
- Our BP, while maybe not as rested (debateable), is still the class of the NL with maybe just the exception of Dondedondo.
- We have the bats
- Cain has lost a bunch of times for reasons that haven't changed; doesn't matter that it'd be the 4th time.
- Dusty has the biggest motivation of all time to make the right calls to close out
- Can't have both my postseason predictions proved wrong on the same day; that'd be crazy talk

Thank you. Must have missed that it was Latos. Well, his stats aren't dissimilar. I'd say he has a good shot.

Latos should do fine. The Reds offense vs. Cain is the issue.

Don't underestimate Rolen - he's a terrific K guy in the playoffs.

Hey! Thought you were going to go reset! Personally, love Rolen and have written as much here. Do think Frazier gives the better chance to go further but sure it's highly debateable. Today's breakdown didn't have much to do with whomever would have been at the hot corner. Not when you allow 8 runs.

Whether Scotty or Toddster tomorrow, Reds Win!

It's worked out 3x versus Cain this year, so the smart money is on one of the best arms in the league being "due" against a team that will be a mental mess tomorrow.
