Keep in the 8 hold and let him play great D. He's our Mark Belanger.

Wow. Mark Belanger Kudos. Keep in mind that the starting staff that Belanger backed up was just a tad better than the Reds.:lol:

Janish had a stretch last season where his offense was ok. I'll admit I thought that maybe he'd finally "got it" and could hover somewhere above .250ish then by all means, he's a great option for the Reds at SS. But it ain't so right now.

You mean we're lacking Palmer/Cuellar/McNally?

Then why did he only pitch 2 innings and throw only 32 pitches his last time out on Monday? Does that make any sense to you?

 

Nothing they've done with Leake makes any sense to me. They drafted him to be a starter and he started off great as a starter. They got worried about his innings (rightfully so) and rather than just letting him keep going until he reached those innings they got him off of a normal schedule so he had no clue when he would start and he proved not to be very valuable out of the pen. He should be a full time starter somewhere all year every year until he builds his arm strength to the point where they feel he can go 200 innings a year. I could see using him out of the pen late in the year if he ever proved he was good out of there but he hasn't.

 

He only pitched two innings because he was coming back 4 days later rather than 5 days later.

His average on 5-14 was .236

 

As of today 5-25 it sits at .280

 

He has been raking.

Jay Bruce is on pace for an Adam Dunn type year.

 

Not sure that's a good thing. :lol:

Higher batting average but same results as far as production. :sssh::sssh:

Higher average, more hits, less strikeouts, and a million times better defense, but yeah other than that. :lol:

Where are all those Janish lovers now that couldn't wait to run Cabrera out of town so he could play everyday?

 

What Janish lovers who wanted to get rid of Cabrerra? I don't remember any of those.

Higher average, more hits, less strikeouts, and a million times better defense, but yeah other than that. :lol:

 

If you score the same amount or runs I don't really care how it happens. I wasn't talking about defense. :D

The reds were I think second in the league in runs scored a week ago. The hitting over all has went south in the last week. It will come back. Janish was hitting pretty good until he got his ankle hurt. Then toothpick put him in at the 2 spot and he hasn't been good since. He did hit a screamer last night that the third baseman made a good play on. If everyone else was hitting things would be fine.

So Halladay's on the mound tonight....How long do the Reds go before they get their first hit? I'm saying Bruce gets one in the 2nd.

:lol:Good point.

 

You mean we're lacking Palmer/Cuellar/McNally?

 

:lol:I can't answer for him but I would think that is exactly what he is saying, and he is right. Our pitchers couldn't wear that staffs.......shoes. :D
