Can VanMeter catch?
Will he be relieved by Ivan Alou?

Louisville gets a little breathing room, and leads now 5-1 with 7 in the books.
Tejay surrendered 1 run in 6 innings. Nice.
Alex Blandino doubled, Josh VanMeter walked and Brian O'Grady sent a laser beam over the right field wall (20).
VanMeter came into the game OPSing 1.120, and has now gone 3 for 3 with a walk. What are the Reds waiting for exactly?

At the very least you have to figure out a way to get Van Meter some playing time in the bigs. Something just seems to have clicked. It makes sense for him to be in AAA to play every day but with Scooter in the last year if his deal it would be nice to know what we have here going into next year. Just so hard to buy into all these crazy AAA numbers.
