Scooter’s on the sixty day DL. Think June.
The Reds don’t face too many lefty starters. I expect Winker to sit against most of them. Winker hasn’t hit lefties and Bell seems to believe he’s better off using a RHH on the short side of a platoon.

Observation on Votto: In prior years he hit to all fields with more hits to LF than pulled.

This year he seems to be trying to pull the ball. Perhaps it is the new hitting coach, perhaps he is trying to hit for more power, perhaps my observation is out to lunch. Outside pitches that he used to simply spoil or hit to LF, he now tries to pull and ends up either striking out or hitting weakly. Has anyone else noticed this?

Stop sitting Winker against every LHP
I’m going to lose my mind over this
It was the second time this week that Winker sat against a left-handed starter, but Bell said it had more to do with his minor quad injury than trying to implement a strict platoon.
Winker has yielded a .552 on-base plus slugging percentage against lefties in his career versus a .907 OPS against right-handers.
“He’s going to play against left-handers,” Bell said earlier this week. “Maybe not every day, just like getting guys rest. Sometimes you look to do that against a left-hander, maybe. But for the most part, he’s going to get a lot of opportunities to start against left-handers.”

Crossed my mind, not sure if it would mess with the groove the starters are in. Hypothetical for another month I would guess. They could always fake an injury to shelve Mahle for a few weeks too, to manage his innings and keep him fresh for the playoff push in September...

For those watching on MLB-TV, I'm always amazed at the Kiss cam commercial. Like the Dude might be thinking "I hope that really hot girl next to me doesn't kiss me"
The Kiss Cam commercial is a propaganda video to aid in the increased spread of HPV.

I'd give some real consideration to a 6 man rotation.
The bullpen will probably be gassed by then, so an extra day of rest with hopes the starters can go deeper might be a good idea.

they were talking about confrontations between Puig and Bumgarner over the years....then they were joking about a cage match, and could not choose who they think would win
Oh, gotcha. My money's definitely on Puig.
Love to see he homered today too. Keep booing, Giants fans! I still remember your raucous jeering when Cueto got injured in 2012. A pox on your house!

I don’t think the reason our starters don’t go deep has anything to do at all with stamina, Bell just doesn’t want them to go through the order 3 times. I don’t think anything is going to change that.

I think you're right and I think it's worked so far. I just don't think he'll have any reliever left to use after another month or so. At least the one and two batter stuff isn't happening as much. That should help.

Votto his own worst enemy. That pitch was pinpoint on the edge but he knows that ump wanted to do a cartwheel and ring him up...Giants growled on prior pitch.
He has to go after that pitch. How did he get that last hit? Joey can get hits on those pitches.

Thinking of mothers day my mom chased off some little league coach who tried to throw my friends and me off the field so they could practice..a field we'd maintained ourselves all summer..We cut the grass on our own time and all.. That fat coach wasn't about to have his way against my mom.. They had to play against our sandlot team and we stomped them like 70-0.. lol
After awhile we were trying to make outs just because we got tired of running.
My mom had a great time cutting on that coach.. A great memory..

Seems like every time Peraza does get on, he see's to it that he's quickly erased.
There were zero outs when he got CS. I wonder what the analytics say about that?
A real 4th OF could go a long way for this team. Ervin isn't great, but I'd definitely prefer him in LF over JP.

Disagree. He was pulling starters in the 5th inning who were cruising on low pitch counts. Pulling a guy in the 7th is a different scenario. Use your lefty there.
