Re: 9/20 vs Astros Day Game Thread
Arroyo just threw Aubrey Huff a dandy sweeping curveball to strike him out.
Good pitch.

Reminds me the lineup the Reds used in that 20K game Randy Johnson threw at the Reds a few years back. Donnie Sadler and Juan Castro batted 1-2 IIRC.

I can see why Phillips needed a day off. But why not give Harris a start at 3b or 2b? Castro and Olmedo are definitely not part of the future. Or since Clayton is a sure gonner after this season, slide Castro to SS.
If Harris can't get a start today, is he doomed to be stashed in AAA as an emergency backup Infielder? I see by his line that he's appeared in 3 games, and only gotten 4 at bats. Seems to indicate he's not in the Reds short term plans.

Maybe he was just a throw-in to that deal as well. :dunno:

I think it really has more to do with Narron's style than anything else. He's not going to lean on anyone who isn't a vet or hasn't been in the org for a while.
I think it's a mistake myself.
Re: 9/20 vs Astros Day Game Thread
Arroyo with a good at bat. He is running up the Rocket's pitch count.
Re: 9/20 vs Astros Day Game Thread
I'd love to see Bronson take Clemens deep.
Re: 9/20 vs Astros Day Game Thread
He K's. 2 outs. Freel up.
Re: 9/20 vs Astros Day Game Thread
Clemens up to 55 pitches... PATIENCE is going well today, even though we have 0 hits!
Re: 9/20 vs Astros Day Game Thread
Freel walked, BTW. Olmedo up with 2 outs and Freel on 2nd.
Re: 9/20 vs Astros Day Game Thread
Clemens worried about Freel....
Re: 9/20 vs Astros Day Game Thread
Rey-Rey breaks up the NO NO... 1st and 3rd Hatte up...
Re: 9/20 vs Astros Day Game Thread
Olmedo singles, Freel to 3B. 2 outs. Hatteberg up to the plate.
1-0 Astros, Reds hitting in the 3rd

He leaned on Brandon Phillips pretty much all year.
