    The consequences with Barrero weren't quite that much, but the chance for success was about the same.
    If someone did anything but fail initially with any jump to a higher league, that would be unexpected. It's how one looks when they fail that makes it obvious that it was a mistake to call them up. This kind of failure usually leads to a loss of confidence that some don't recover from.

    Reds still playing hard, trying to win, despite all the tribulations of this season. Good for them, good inning for them.

    If you catch a HR ball, you've earned it because it's going to sting while you pretend that it doesn't hurt.

    That one pitch went to North Dakota.

    Completely agree.
    All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!

    Friedl's BAbip since he last call up is around .386.

    Senzel continues to do himself no favors

    Senzel's bat is so anemic. Pretty big athletic guy with zero pop.

    When's the last time Senzel hit the ball out of the infield?

    I'd imagine that Senzel must see the writing on the wall. His future as a bench player who can fill in for multiple positions must seem imminent to him.

    Let's see if the Reds can parlay that good inning into a win, probably the only one of the series if they can do it!

    One of Senzel’s issues IMO is impatience. He has a fair number of walks, but sometimes he seems to jump early and make weak contact.

    Generally as a player he’s a bit overaggressive. I think it’s hurting him as a hitter.

    If he waited for his pitch he might drive the ball more.
