Because baseball

Wacha way better vs lefties, yet our righties of Galvis, Iglesias and Ervin are 2/19 off of him and our lefty Votto completely owned him.

I simply think Votto was scratched and Van Meter replaces him

What I'm looking at on mlb.com shows Peraza 4/13 with 3 rbi. He may be saving him for pinch hitting for Gray if Reds get behind.

Haven't been watching the game-partly because I just got home. But reading the comments here on the last page at this point seems like yet another argument for automated balls and strikes. Yeah, I know, it's a "human game". But when the umpires are negatively effecting the pitcher, upping his pitch count with missed calls and tight or inconsistent strike zones, they are having too much of an adverse effect on the game. You can say "play through it". Well, sure. But when part of playing through it involves going to your bullpen before you would otherwise need to,that shouldn't happen.

I've always been nervous with Lorenzen pitching. I don't think he is nearly as good (consistently at least) as his usage. He looked good these first two batters though, haha.

Just checking the box score. Did Galvis’ acquisition give a little boost of energy to Iglesias? 7 for his last 15 since Monday.

I'd simultaneously keep Lorenzen in and also bring in Iglesias depending on what happens with this batter.

A good job by Lorenzen, but just a way too high % of his pitches miss his target by a very large amount. Bell afraid he'll leave one in the middle for Goldschmidt.

I remember when that started. It was a few years ago during a Bark In The Park night and later in the game a dog somewhere was howling like that and then the people were trying to make the dog do it more. And so it goes... the ever-present woooooers.
