Anyone who doesn't think Juan Castro plays great defense is just not getting it. The guy can make plays. I appreciate his defense.
Freel flies out to center. 1 out.
Well, I'll allow that he's done about as well as he could have since the Reds picked him up.
Dunn strikes out swinging. 5 Ks for Sheets. 2 outs.
31 1st-inning pitches for Chris Carpenter.
Junior strikes out looking. 6 Ks for Sheets. 1-0 Brewers mid 3rd.
I'm not sure about that strike 3 call...
Once Sheets gets two strikes its all over. Both basehits were on the first strike(and neither was hit hard, just well placed)
Man, Sheets is just killing them. Got to score on him, guys. You don't want to get into a battle of the bullpens with the Brews.

Sheets has everything working today. It seems that their best hope today is that he gets tired early.
... within his limited range. There is a reason the Twins didn't want him on their team.
Ben Sheets gets a big old "Yawn" from me.
Yeah, he's got fantastic stuff, but he can't stay helathy enough to help his team. If Sheets was healthy to start the year, it might be a different story in the NL Central.
I've got zero interest in pitchers like Sheets, Prior, Wood, et. al. that look good enough to make you think "what if" while reality falls apart around you.
