Vlad proving my skepticism about his ability to last as a starter right but boy I wish I'd been wrong.

If I'm Bell I make Gutierrez pitch AT LEAST 6 innings. If you're gonna' give up runs, then you can be the only one doing so.
Reds got all the good that Vlad had. Sadly he will be right back in the rotation next year. Hope they try to shop him to a western team with a big park. Maybe could get a serviceable reliever for him. After next season they won't be able to get anything.
Vlad was never really going to be a great pitcher here. Got pretty lucky to get what they did out of him, and what they did get out of him was pretty awesome. Not really a lot you can do now though. Have to ride with who we have. Maybe he can shut them down for the next few innings and the offense can have a pulse.
6.00 ERA in the month of September
Brewers starting to warm up.. 2-2 now
Brewers have tied the Cards 2-2
All the games against the Pirates really do encapsulate the differences in the Reds throughout the year. The first week they demolished them and looked like world beaters. Then they went into a lull and just did squeak by to win the series in May. Then at the height of their season they pounded the snot out of them in August. But this month the Pirates have looked like the better team and sadly it hasn't been that close.
