Mets at Reds (5/7 - 5/9)

[oldrambler]

I am and always will be a Reds fan but have to say that it brought a smile to my face seeing J. Bruce, T. Frazier back in GABP. Along with watching Bruce put one around halfway up in the right field seats. .....Karma for our incompetent Reds front office.

Both are FA’s and the Reds are paying the rest of Mez’s deal. Is Harvey 2018 depth?

Guess the Reds are taking a chance that new scenery will help resurrect Harvey and they can get something for him at the deadline. Plus the nightclub scene is not nearly as hot as NY so maybe he'll see the writing on the wall and focus on baseball. They weren't going to get anything for Meso at the deadline.

If Harvey plays well enough they might be able to flip him at the deadline

I'll do it. Castillo perfect through 4 innings.

Who's the backup catcher tonight?

[Just Hangin Around]

Castillo still with the shutout and pitching well.

[Just Hangin Around]

Shutout is gone.

[Just Hangin Around]

Garrett relieves Castillo and can't find the strike zone, walks 2 in a row including 1 with bases loaded and then strikes out Nimmo to end the inning. 4-2 Reds middle of the 6th.

The radio guy from 840?

Finnegan could be pitching for his roster spot next start.

Deal summary ... Reds save about $8M and get a $5M version of Homer Bailey - hopefully.
