Glad to see VanMeter in the lineup over Dietrich.

I think he’s in there over Ervin actually ....Dietrich seems to be on the bottom of the totem pole.

But you are right Bell has him in over Dietrich

If Senzel stays out (man I hope not)....and Puig continues his modest cool off. I’d like to see Ervin with a few starts against righties. I know he had chances last year.

Ervin currently has a .509 BAIP. His crash back to reality is going to be hard for some people lol.

Unless you are missing a “b” I don’t know what that is. Have his hits been swinging bunts or 4 hoppers? Since the break and maybe a bit before his swing is condensed and quick. He’s striking the ball well....we know he’s not steroid Barry Bonds when he faces lefties but that’s what he seems like right now. We know he’s hitting way better than he is overall but he’s also swinging a hot bat.....if one of our other players are struggling for a bit, yes....I’d like to see him get a few starts against even righties.

Since the ASB I have Ervin as 9/20 against righties with a couple walks. Mainly a singles hitter yes. HOLY SAMPLE SIZE GUISE!!!!! I know.

We have Winker who I like and yes good sample size numbers want Winker up bs a righty....I do too. VanMeter....keep giving him looks. Senzel I pray gets healthy ASAP and in there everyday. Puig is my favorite Reds player this year....he’s been great since mid May but he hasn’t been very good of late. Yeah I want him in there but he’s not looked very good a lot the last week or so.

Maybe it’s something for September when we are maybe completely out of it....but I want more looks at Ervin vs righties. He’s about the same age as Scooter was when everyone knew career .615 OPS vs lefties Scooter couldn’t hit lefties.....then given a chance last year went close to .800 most over the year vs lefties ending around .780 vs lefties.

I’m never ever mad when Ervin isn’t starting vs a righty....but I do want him getting more looks sometime before this season is over....unless they catch fire and stay alive the rest of the way.

No anger, no hurting when he returns from his Ruthian vs lefties or struggles vs righties. I don’t mind giving Bell credit for putting Ervin in good situations to succeed and maybe that helped him have more recent confidence vs righties of late. When hitters get comfortable at the dish and on a hot streak, they don’t care a whole lot about who is on the mound.

Why don't Reds pitchers throw inside more? It seems the only time they go inside is a mistake pitch. When the Reds won the 1990 WS, their pitching coach was Stan Williams.
He preached throwing inside. He was a strikeout pitcher for the Dodgers, playing at the same time as Don Drysdale. I sure Williams learned plenty from Drysdale. Dibble, Myers, Charlton, Rijo, Armstrong, etc. weren't afraid to throw inside. Another piece of baseball that's missing today.

If by "no way," you mean Ryu can't have two so-so outings (which would have put him neck and neck with Castillo had the latter kept doing what he's been doing), I suppose. But that doesn't sound like "Mission Impossible" to me, though. They're even in WAR right now. Scherzer's up in the WAR column on both of them, but got hit pretty good his last time out and sometimes deals with fatigue from the high pitch counts this time of year.

I would like to see Castillo in that race through September.

He was in AAA earlier, don't options apply for the whole season, up and down as many times as you want? I don't think it'll be a lefty, and Sims doesn't deserve to go with over half of his ERA due to the runs he gave up after 7 shutout innings. Stephenson helping his case so far other than walking the lead-off hitter. Maybe they'll want to keep keep Sims starting in Louisville in case Wood's back acts up or Castillo gets a "dead arm" or a starter is traded.

Too bad about the score, but glad Bell gave Stephenson those three innings.

Coming off some rough outings, he used his fastball more, was 94-95. Seemed to mix his pitches more. Maybe that’s necessary for him.

Not sure he had much left at the end there, luckily got the CS, but an encouraging outing.

He did well in that spot against the Cubs. And it wasn't a pressure situation the other day when he gave up those runs to Milwaukee.

Hughes came into tonight with an ERA of 2.88. Now it sits at 4.17. That's how much one outing can effect things negatively for a reliever. Over half of the runs (10 of 18 ) he has allowed this season have occurred tonight and in one outing vs St Louis in April. Hardly needs jettisoning.

Since I've watched the Reds forever and the last 5 years have been painful, at least this year they are trying to get better. As much as David Bell makes me shake my head, he's learning. On the whole, the pitching is better. This team is never going to win a division or a wild card, so I just want to avoid last place. And finish higher than those hated Pirates. So far, so good. If they continue to put the best team they can on the field and entertain me. They may trade Roark, Puig, and maybe Raisel, but my hope is they replace them with genuine major leaguers and not suspects, which has happened the last five years. No dumpster diving.
