    Is Barrero hurt or benched?

    I’m guessing a couple days rest to try and clear the head.

    @Reds

    The Reds today selected from Triple-A Louisville the contract of RHP Derek Law and designated for assignment LHP Ross Detwiler.

    IF/OF Max Schrock, designated for assignment yesterday, has been released.

    Was there not someone else in the bullpen who could have gotten sent down before Ross?

    Why is Aquino starting vs a RHP?

    Great plan for Jose, put him in an impossible position, now he needs a mental break.

    Player development in Redsland.

    Impossible position?

    If being in the batters box against MLB pitching is an impossible position then I'm not sure it matters what they do. The first time he was called up it was the jumping from A+ ball excuse. Last year it was the he didn't get enough regular playing time excuse. This year it's the he had surgery 8 months ago excuse. I bought the first two excuses, but this is the third time he's been over matched by MLB pitching and it's at age 24.

    I'm not sure what can be done with a guy who has 2 BB to 41 SO.

    David Bell said this would be the second of two games that Jose Barrero would be sitting out of the lineup.

    He had Barrero do nothing yesterday to reset himself mentally after he's been struggling since his Aug. 3 recall. He's 2-for-24 in his last 8 games.

    Barrero is doing pregame work today and is expected to be back in the Reds lineup tomorrow.

    If you had a HS student struggling with basic math, would you move him into advanced calculus?

    Look, I know the fans wanted to see Barrero. The fans want every prospect to move up. When is he moving up? Move him up. Constant refrain, including around here.

    But this kid needed to come out of his doldrums in the minors. It was obvious then and it’s more obvious now. If he couldn’t hit AAA pitching the MLB hurlers were going to chew him up. Jose didn’t need that.

    I look at it as an opportunity. He's still going to get the rest of this season to gain valuable experience against major league pitching and he most likely would have been here in September anyway. I don't see the harm in having him up a month early. He's still under team control for a few years, if I'm not mistaken, so he still will be given the opportunity to iron things out even if he doesn't hit, in AAA.
