Suarez’s error and Billy getting burned for playing shallow had a big effect that inning. A below average pitcher like Bailey is now needs decent defense and some luck to make him usable and instead everything behind him goes awful, every time.
    still he threw that beach ball to the pitcher and he smoke it!!

    At this point, the experiment with Bailey should end.

    I understand ownership wanting to try and get some value for their money. But this seems hopeless and I don’t think anything is being achieved by trotting him out there every five games.

    Bailey has some positive peripherals this outing 0 bb and 4 Ks through 3. Lets hope Reed is paying attention

    I read on the internet that he may be dating Riggleman's daughter.

    On the plus side Bailey can bunt. He has sac bunts on the night already and the REds have 2nd and 3rd with 1 out.

    Do the REds lead the league in runners thrown out at home?

    This is a clown show. Hopefully this will just stop any notion of retaining Jim Riggleman.

    Cowboy is infinitely better at play-by-play than when he first came aboard.

    I think a name change may be in order. Maybe Red Storm.

    Or my personal favorite, Red Scare. For all the Russophobes out there.

    If not, then it's at least past time to change the laundry.
