    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Re: 7-9 vs Diamondbacks (Olmedo starts)

    Can someone tell my why Snyder was pitched to after Terrero stole second (w/ 2outs).

    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.

    Olmedo triples. One down.
