Did anyone notice that the two Brandons were born 8 days apart in 1979?

Claussen has thrown 48 pitches in 2 innings?
ouch. he's lucky to have only given up 1 run.
Dubito Ergo Cogito Ergo Sum.
Brandon Webb is the type of pitcher the Reds need. Ground ball galore.
If only the Reds were in it....they could trade for him
I'm impressed with how he's pitched lately, but this is an Achilles Heel of his. He's averaging around 17 pitches per inning this year. Until he gets that down a bit, he's not going to get deep into games.Originally Posted by TRF
Reading comprehension is not just an ability, it's a choice
Claussen has averaged 16.90 pitches/inning this year. 2nd highest on the staff behind Luke Hudson (18.41). The REDS starters as a whole have avg. 16.60 pitches/inning this year.
Lowest? Matt Belisle in 5 starts has averaged 15.29 pitches/inning.
rey rey singles, casey flies out to left.

Brandon Claussen- Pitches by Hitter:
1st Inning:
Counsell (LH)- 3 Pitches
Clayton (RH)- 8 Pitches
Gonzalez (LH)- 6 Pitches
Glaus (RH)- 8 Pitches
2nd Inning-
Tony Clark (SH= RH)- 3 Pitches
Shawn Green (LH)- 5 Pitches
Terrero (RH)- 5 Pitches
Snyder (RH)- 5 Pitches
Webb (RH)- 1 Pitch (Sac Bunt)
Counsell (LH)- 5 Pitches
3rd Inning:
Clayton (RH)- 6 Pitches
Gonzalez (LH)- 3 Pitches
Glaus (RH)- 6 Pitches
Average Pitches to LH Hitters (non-Pitcher): 4.40
Average Pitches to RH Hitters (non-Pitcher): 5.86
Claussen's seasonal OPS Against splits are nearly the same versus LH and RH hitters. But I wonder if his high pitch counts might not be at least partly attributable to needing more pitches to get RH hitters out. The numbers above are obviously a very very small sample size, but I'm just thinking out loud.

Yep. Nothing 3mph on his fastball wouldn't fix. I tell you, the FrankenMiltaussen idea still has merit.Originally Posted by SteelSD

Webb 0 for 30...

Who knows. Death by bottom of lineup stinks when you have a base open and an awful hitting pitcher on deck.Originally Posted by oneupper
