3/13/08 vs Phillies (Game Thread)

[Danny Serafini]

Another 1-2-3 inning, 8-4 Phils after 5. I'm taking off, so if anyone wants to take over what little PBP I've done feel free.

[Aronchis]

If Volquez has fastball command problems then he sure as heck didn't show it the other night. He was constantly painting the corners with his fastball in almost Pedro like fashion.

Considering he barely threw his fastball, how would you know? Which sums up my point exactly.

[OnBaseMachine]

I saw him throw his fastball plenty of times. You apparently watched a different game, or maybe you were too busy plotting up another degrading post of Cueto.

[Sea Ray]

Missed some time, it's now 7-4. Got back just in time to hear Bako air mail a throw into center field.

And he's supposed to be a defensive catcher right?

And he's supposed to be a defensive catcher right?

I believe he's the catcher who can "manage a pitching staff"

[M2]

You mean he barely used the fastball that had posters on this board coming out of their shoes in praise of it during the game thread? Odd to see such an overwhelming reaction for something that barely happened.

Affeldt got his brains kicked in tonight...3 1/3 innings, 7 runs, 9 hits, 3 Ks, one walk

Is this experiment over now?

Hopefully he earns his millions in the pen.

If not, this was a waste.

[Matt700wlw]

That'd be fine....he has a track record there.

[edabbs44]

That'd be fine....he has a track record there.

As mostly a reliever:

2005: 5.26 ERA, 1.711 WHIP
2006: 6.20 ERA, 1.613 WHIP
2007: 3.51 ERA, 1.356 WHIP

Very short track.

[puca]

Middle relievers are fools gold. My biggest complaint with Krivsky is how often he is fooled.

[TeamBoone]

Can anyone give an update on the game please...

[NC Reds]

The Majik Man gave up 2 runs in 2 innings.....and lowered his ERA to 14.40. Nice.

Reds fall 10-7. I wish Votto and Bruce would start raking.
