Why does he need a day off?

 

Votto doesn't get them, and they all just had a day off 6 days ago.

 

Just figure he could probably use a mental break.

Haven't you guys complained that Dusty has conceded every Sunday game all season? What is the Sunday record again???

I don't mind giving Brucie a day off vs Santana...Yes he has been hitting Lefties alot better, however one bad game against a pitcher of Santana's form could get him into a slump...It really doesn't matter too much anyways if nobody gets on in front of where Bruce is hitting...Other than a solo jack...Leake will have to give up no more than 1 run imo if the Reds are going to take this one...

6-0 on the Lords day.

6-0 on the Lords day.

 

I bet there wasn't a single sacrifice bunt in one of those games. Unacceptable.

Reds lead off hitters are the worst in the MLB by far...

 

.150 BA and OBP .198 worst in MLB by about 50 points. Worst OPS by nearly 100 points.

Seems to be a trend with those 5 teams.

Leake throws 26 pitches in the 1st, only 12 for strikes. A recipe for disaster.

Excellent...Stubbs, Votto, Phillips

Next out of the Mets bullpen...Tyson Chandler

and Bruce.

Another inning for Arrendondo or will Dusty go with Aroldis?

I don't think Aroldis is available.

Frazier with his 2nd Bomb of the game.

Scott who???

It better be Chapman with lefties coming up.
