    Can you imagine how bad Hurtubise would be playing Benson’s role? Can you have a negative SLG? Is that possible? Can you owe bases?
    Is this supposed to be a defense? Imagine how bad Hurtubise would be?

    Benson strikes out 42% against righties and he now only plays against righties. He should not be a starting outfielder on the club. He should be at AAA.

    Was 2 outs….now game is over

    It’s mind-boggling

    I need to see the Reds start losing because of balls hit up the middle

    Suter hadn't given up a run in the month of June, so I guess he was due...?

    We’re at the point when Krall has to start making changes.

    If he can’t get better players, then bring up some prospects and let them try.

    Not a defense at all. Benson is very bad. That’s not in dispute.

    My point is that the Reds’ organizational depth at OF is quite abysmal. Friedl has been hurt, Fraley has turned in to Juan Castro and everyone else is a mediocre role player at best.

    I like this type of losing better than leading the whole game and blowing it after the 7th.

    I'd like to see Dunn get a shot to see if last year was a mirage over running Benson out there.

    There's not really any positional prospects to bring up.

    And this is why you can't bonehead/analytics yourself out of a win yesterday. Reds had total control of the game and gave it to the Red Sox wrapped in a bow. Days like today happen, especially when the bottom 3rd of our lineup might be the worst in baseball

    He isn't eligible to come back up for another week I think, unless there's an injury and he got hit in the face yesterday.
