    At this point, might as well lose for crews.

    Bell's been using him in the most critical situations. He was trying to keep the lead. I don't have an issue with it.

    Frankly, nothing is going to prepare Diaz more for the closer's role than coming in the game for the toughest scenarios.

    Kuhnel has choked every close opportunity he's had. He's just not very good, barely fit for middle relief or mop up, def. should be nowhere near the last inning of a one run lead.

    Bugs Bunny can. Hell, Bugs Bunny can also play every position at the same time.

    i think the reds should use a slow-pitch softball pitcher as their #5 starter. listen, if you're going to tank, tank hard or go home.

    Disagree. Closer is the closer for a reason. Does his brother come in for the 7th or 8th?

    I hope “Lose for the Crews” doesn’t fail as badly as the “No wins for the Senz” campaign did.
