That wouldn't surprise me, but I hope you're wrong. His stats at Louisville have earned him a shot IMO though.Originally Posted by Kc61

That's more than solid enough to warrent a good long look at him the rest of the year IMO.

A 6 pitch 9th inning for the Reds. Bruce and Phillips both fly out on the first pitch.
All in all, Maholm threw 97 pitches in 8 innings, and Grabow threw 6 in the 9th. The Reds lose seeing only 103 pitches. The opposing pitcher only had to throw 11.4 pitches per inning tonight.
We are not going to win many games where we hack away like that. Now, with Adam Dunn and his league leading P/PA numbers gone, opposing teams can give their bullpens the night off.
The best Reds in OBP and P/PA were Dunn, Ross, and Griffey.(Hairston is high in OBP too) They are gone. This team will not win until it recognizes the importance of getting runners on base.

* 7th time this year that the REDS have had no walks in a game.
> 2007 season: 8 times.
> 2006 season: 5 times.
> 2005 season: 3 times.
* Last time the REDS were 20 or more games back was the end of the 2005 season. That was 445 games ago.
Well at least this new O of ours will make games quicker.
gO reDZ!
Go Gators!
I bet Patterson is still here in '09. At least he's better than Hopper.And stakes Fogg to an early 1-0 lead with his 8th Hr.
He'll be here in '09. Anyone wanna wager?
I don't think so, Patterson is having himself a nice dead cat bounce but he's still bad, at least Norris can bunt

I doubt either CP or NH will be back in 2009.

About the only thing Hopper can do is bunt. IMO Patterson is far and away a better defensive outfielder than Hopper.
