7/23/2017 - Reds vs. Marlins: Can the Reds avoid the sweep?

[Kc61]

How long you leave Romano in? One more inning, around 100 pitches?

This.

I'd pinch hit here for Sal. Let him have his feel good moment. Near 90 pitches after 5. Will be top of Marlins order in 6th. He leads off bottom of 5th. No brainer really.

Let him have a chance to win it with no chance to lose it.

[JaxRed]

I might yank him if someone reaches.

[Kc61]

BobSteve admitted after the game he tired in the sixth. Price should have removed him after 5 innings, 90 pitches. Hot night, big spot for the kid, lot of pressure. I thought it was a bad decision that may have cost the game.

But Sal looks confident and strong, no problem with 100 pitches or so. No more, though, IMO.

I already outlined it prior to your post. Quit worrying about the 100 pitches unless he starts laboring badly with the first 2 hitters.

Yes because baseball should a happy sport where you never learn how to push yourself past 5 innings as a starter. If that was the 6th I would say yes or go batter by batter.

He's made like 3 starts dude, there's gonna be lots of time to "learn how to push yourself past 5 innings as a starter"

But he WS not tired going into the 6th. He started getting tired as the inning progressed? I mean if he was tired after th first batter he faced he should have called time and said I'm done. You guys think he went out there tired?

I agree here I think the biggest thing with the young starters is to get as many of them confident going into next season as possible

Would you let him throw 110 or 120 pitches if Sal looks strong?

It's a balance. Price likes starters trained to go deep in games. I agree to a point, but the confidence thing is important too. Last night pointed to removal after 5 innings. Today, points to six innings, 100 pitches for Sal IMO.

lol Votto taps one back to the pitcher for a sure double play and the Marlins throw it away

3-1 Redlegs

Dude? Are you trying to bro down like Broadway Bro Down? As a stated before KC post which everyone seems to be ignoring and only answering him.... I think he can go into the 6th and you go batter by batter. He's not close to 100. Unless he is tired already then he should say I'm done.

[BluegrassRedleg]

What a break. Poor Votto is a hot mess right now.
