August 5, 201610 yr Author Why? Are you expecting them to make a late run for the wildcard? Stephenson and maybe Garret will be up soon enough when they shut down Finegan and Reed. 6 weeks ago everyone was clamoring for him to be called up to replace Simon. Hes been here, he obviously has some stuff to work on, cant work on it here when your getting shelled more than an ISIS camp. Send him down to work out the kinks. They sent Lamb back down, why not Reed?
August 5, 201610 yr It's amazing how hard it is to gain ground when you trail four teams. The Reds as good as they've been still can't gain ground on Milwaukee.
August 5, 201610 yr Finnegan 6 IP 1 H 4 K No runs or walks. Very nice. Glad Price saved our best RP for the game we are up 7-0. :isurrender:

How many innings do you think they will allow Stephenson and Garrett? Stepenson combined at AAA and Cincy in 2016 has thrown 121.2 and Garrett 113.0 combined AA and AAA. Stephenson only threw 134.0 in 2015 and Garrett 140.0. Reed threw 145.2 in 2015.
August 5, 201610 yr They won 2 of 3(could have swept) without Disco,Cozart or Bruce. 3rd place in Division is easily attainable. Cardinals are awful No it's not. They're 9.5 games out of third.

Stephenson only threw 134.0 in 2015 and Garrett 140.0. Reed threw 145.2 in 2015. Probably no more than 30 innings over what they did last year. Alfredo Simon will be back shortly and steal some starts to keep the innings down.
August 5, 201610 yr I'll be shocked at this point if Garrett pitches in the majors this season. Stephenson will probably be September 1 call up.
August 5, 201610 yr I'll be shocked at this point if Garrett pitches in the majors this season. Stephenson will probably be September 1 call up. Garrett had an awful outing last night. He lasted on 2/3 of an inning, and walked 4.
August 5, 201610 yr Garrett had an awful outing last night. He lasted on 2/3 of an inning, and walked 4. He's been great otherwise. I could see him in the bullpen during Sept callups. Just get a taste.
August 5, 201610 yr He's been great otherwise. I could see him in the bullpen during Sept callups. Just get a taste. Possible, but I agree with UKMF.
August 5, 201610 yr Author He's been great otherwise. I could see him in the bullpen during Sept callups. Just get a taste. Never understood that, if hes a starter, leave him a starter. Send him to the fall league if you want to get more time with him, dont bring him up to pitch an inning here or there.
August 5, 201610 yr Never understood that, if hes a starter, leave him a starter. Send him to the fall league if you want to get more time with him, dont bring him up to pitch an inning here or there. They don't want him pitching many more innings.
August 5, 201610 yr Author They don't want him pitching many more innings. Thats fine then, but dont bring him up to be a reliever for 30 days, dumb.
August 5, 201610 yr Thats fine then, but dont bring him up to be a reliever for 30 days, dumb. Yep just dumb. Cardinals didn't benefit at all from doing it with the likes of Adam Wainwright, Michael Wacha, or Carlos Martinez....
August 5, 201610 yr Thats fine then, but dont bring him up to be a reliever for 30 days, dumb. What is dumb about that?
