Gamethread: Game 100 vs. the Astros

ASTROS PROBABLE: REDS PROBABLE:
Roger Clemens (2-3, 2.43) Aaron Harang (10-6, 3.72)
This is kind of cool:
Red Reporter went over a million total pageviews last night
Love games against Clemens, it's such a thrill when the Reds beat a pitcher this good. Hopefully we'll get that thrill tonight.
Go Reds!

What is wrong with Aurilia at SS?
by Paul Householder on Jul 25, 2006 7:43 PM EDT up reply actions
He's only played 2 games this year
That's what I figured...
by Paul Householder on Jul 25, 2006 7:52 PM EDT up reply actions
d metrics
He's on his sixth team in five years, which sums it up nicely.

Guardado research
2003 3W 5L 41Sv 0.98WHIP 2.89ERA
2004 2W 2L 18Sv 0.99WHIP 2.78ERA
2005 2W 3L 36Sv 1.19WHIP 2.72ERA
VORPs of 22.3, 17.3, 12.7
I hadn't realized his numbers were that strong over the past three seasons. Nice move by Kriv, which is paying huge dividends.
There is no amount of research that can support Narron benching EE for the 2nd straight game. Doofus.

HOUSTON -- Eddie Guardado was unavailable tonight due to forearm stiffness. It flared up on him in his last appearance Saturday, he tested it out this afternoon and didn't feel right, so they gave him a night off.
He said he'll be back and available tomorrow night.
