Otherwise, I'd expect Lecure and Simon to work three innings each.

Two outs.

I have very little to no confidence in Simon for one inning, let alone three.

This strike zone is 16:9.

Yes but the player who is removed mid-series is immediately ineligible for the next round of postseason play.

Cain has stretched the outside of that plate.

Matt Cain doesn't need any help.

Stranded. Not good.

Hanigan flies out to right. 0-0 mid 2nd.

This strike zone is LOL-tastic. Yea, let's help out a guy with a perfect game on his resume.

That, was awesome.

I wonder if they disable one of Miggy or Valdez and get another arm available, if that NLCS ban is accurate.

Be swinging at outside pitches boyos. This ump is calling them all.

To those stressing over removing Cueto and losing him for the next round: It would not matter. If it is serious enough to remove him from the roster he won't be ready next weekend.

Yeah, I agree, so if the Reds need someone in the middle, who is it?

I guess another possibility is JJ Hoover.

Lecure, Hoover, Marshall, Broxton, Chapman.

Can the Reds get through this with those five?

Hopefully that strike zone is consistent for both teams. That will help this sticky situation immensely.
