    What a head case. Didn't even try to run to first base on his half-hearted ground out. I think the fans have seen enough of him tonight with all the booing.

    Cueto's too damn talented to be doing this still, so often, really frustrating.

    Cabrera isn't really that good.

    That's not on Gomes. That's on the guy who gave up an RBI double to an AL pitcher, then walked the next two guys to face the #3 guy in the KC batting order.

    Cueto better have a short leech this inning or this one can get away fast, if it already hasn't.

    Pitching coaches stopped using leeches in the late 1800's...

    He's just raring back and throwing as hard as he can IMO.

    He ends up looking directly at Votto after each pitch he's flying open so much. How has Price/Cueto/Hernandez not made the adjustment yet? I shouldn't know more about this sitting here on my butt watching the game. This is real bad. If Cueto can't make the adjustment himself, his pitching coach or catcher should drill it in his head.

    Time for Dusty to make a statement--pull him, sit him down and explain to him he can't pitch until he follows instructions.

    That's fine as long as you finish stepping towards home plate and not first base.

    Cueto's shares most of the blame, but a decent LF gets that ball or at least plays it correctly so three runs don't score.

    Blowing a 4-0 lead against a team like the Royals is almost impossible to do. And the Reds have managed to pull it off in consecutive nights. I wish my happiness wasn't so tied to how well this team does. ;-)
