No Ty Steve.

I didn’t expect him to play today after getting nicked up yesterday and removed from game.

Still, Ty Steve and Farmer against the LHP might have been helpful today.

I’m sure Bell will address that issue today at some point.

Just like the famous Casey Stengel comment about why he drafted a catcher. If you don’t have a catcher, you have all passed balls.

Colin Moran is batting ninth and playing first.

David Bell said catcher Tyler Stephenson is fully cleared. “Positive news, we’re good.”

Kyle Farmer remains out with soreness, but he’s available off the bench today.

The target date for Nick Senzel to start rehab games is Wednesday.

The Reds and Tyler Stephenson are looking into getting a different mask to protect him from concussions.

They’re not looking into moving him away from catcher.

“I don’t think it’s going to impact anything,” Stephenson said.

“I’m not worried about it.”

Greene great stuff. The back door breaking ball to lefties seems as effective as Randy Johnson’s slider to righties

2 straight back door curves to last batter made him look silly then they called a fastball…..wasted a pitch and affects feel a bit….his next pitch worked but it was a ball by a mile but a bad hitter.

Actually they see the 9th most in the majors:

https://www.baseball-reference.com/leagues/majors/2022-pitches-batting.shtml

Oddly 5 of the top 9 are from the NL Central. In games with a control pitcher, however, the Reds MO has long been to swing early in the count which just lowers the pitch count that much more. I assume the theory is they are most likely to see a good pitch early.

It was my first year collecting cards. Got the whole set eventually- one pack at a time.

He passed away just last year.

I didn’t start collecting until 78, but that was a trivia/fact on the back of one of his later cards.
