I'm going to keep this short and simple: where in the world is Bill Bray? Dead arm period? Another injury that we don't know about? I haven't heard a thing, all I know is we're not using him.

Bray threw 2 scoreless innings last night, with 2 K.
You're right, though, he has not been in there very much lately, and certainly not in tight situations. For some reason which will remain unknown to me, Narron prefers Franklin at this point.
sorry we're boring
As soon as I posted that, Narron brought Bray in. It was good to see him pitch well.
I can tell you where Ryan Franklin and Todd Coffey are on a nightly basis.
Im very tired of Ryan Franklin.
Championships for MY teams in my lifetime:

Chicago Blackhawks - 10, 13, 15
University of Kentucky - 78, 96, 98, 12
Chicago Bulls - 91, 92, 93, 96, 97, 98

seeing how Franklins a flamethrowing pitcher with several all star games under his belt I can see why we use him nightly....oh wait hes a soft tossing journeyman? oh....... nevermind.
Hoping for another Reds October
Narron is using him as a mop up man now. I can't say it isn't justified.
My memory is foggy from last night, but even though Bray pitched two scoreless innings, he started his appearance by walking the pitcher. I think he got a K on the second batter, and then got out of his first inning by a great play by Aurillia on a hard hit ball.
I don't remember the play by play on the second inning, but I think that's how the first inning went.
[Phil ] Castellini celebrated the team's farm system and noted the team had promising prospects who would one day be great Reds -- and then joke then they'd be ex-Reds, saying "of course we're going to lose them". #SellTheTeamBob
