This team had a nice little run (comparatively speaking) but this .200 win rate is what I expect as the norm. I had a glimmer of hope but reality slapped me.

Same here. The bullpen was pitching well, and the Reds were putting up runs. Now, they're back to doing neither of those things well. Someone mentioned the other day in on RZ that maybe Stephenson being out at C has lead to the drought in runs?

Nick Senzel was called out on strikes on pitch No. 7.
Senzel and David Bell both spoke to the umpire after the strikeout.
Look at pitch 7

Should have lost 8-4 with two guys on, not just one. Robbed again.

The problem is they are being trained for one inning. When they go in they need to be ready to go until they are pulled. They now don't need to be pinch hit for so no reason to let down at the end of an inning. Lot's of times it is best to let the guy go back out there for at least one batter. If you've got a lefty hitter up 2nd, you'd rather wait until he comes up to bring in the lefty pitcher. Too much emphasis is being put on guys coming in to start an inning clean!
