    I wish him and the Brewers well.

    I agree setup guys are important. But the Reds will have all offseason to address it, and it won't cost anywhere near $11M.

    Brox is a good man but under no circumstances do I wish the Brewers well. And I'm a born and bred Cheesehead.

    Hope you're right. Just thought we could get something for Broxton. One thing we learned this year is that all pitchers on the roster are important.

    Ok you took me literally that I meant he is a Zobrist clone as of now.... I meant the Zobrist from 2010-12.

    Phillips didn't scream in pain when he hit that weak grounder. He's clearly faking his injury

    Brandon Phillips is either hurt or just can't hit any more. I'll assume he is hurt.

    Sit him.

    He was doing good and recently he has been very average to poor.....with an injury prone history. He is overpaid at $9M for what he does, and the fact they could very little for him...I think shows that as well?

    Price will not do that. He will not sit Bruce either. He should not just bench them but sit them more often, but he won't. So whoever is brought up will have to live with LF and some 3b/1b ...depending on when Frazier plays.

    It's not a question of benching anyone. It's not punishment.

    I won't speak about Bruce, who doesn't look visibly injured right now. I understand he's subpar, but he looks like he can play.

    Phillips visibly cannot hit now. He should be sitting, resting, whatever.
