PrintCincinnati Reds at St. Louis Cardinals, Apr 28, 2008 8:15 PM EDT

Wellemeyer spent his first 4.5 years in the Majors as a reliever and the results were very meh. Borderline bleh even. Then he gets picked up by St. Louis off of waivers, is put in the starting rotation, and has since posted a 5-1 record with a 3.70 ERA while striking out 7.5 per 9IP and walking 3.7 per 9IP. This leads me to believe this one irrefutable fact: Dave Duncan is a witch.
Here's a fun nugget: Bronson Arroyo has pitched in a game following a win in 3 of his 5 starts this year. In those games he has pitched 15 total innings with an ERA of 10.80, taking the loss in all three games. My point in all of this is, it's all Bronson's fault. Everything. Well, except for the parts that are obviously Dunn and Juniors fault.
I think it's right about time for the first three-game win streak of the season, don't you?

It's hard to argue against him.
The fact of the matter is, Patterson is terrible lately, and Freel is only playing once every four days. Common sense says that with how much the Reds are paying him, that would have been addressed by now. This one’s on Dusty and his man-crush on C-Pat.

It's probably not helpful to have this out in the media
but, on the bright side, it might force the Reds to do something about the crazy Patterson/Freel/Hairston/Hopper situation. Of course, that “something” might be terrifying.

I can't see anything they do about this being that devastating.
Any move they make with those four is going to be a step in the right direction, unless it’s signing any of them to a contract extension. And if the answer isn’t going to be any of them, it’s surely going to be Jay Bruce, and I don’t think anyone would be strongly against that.

a combination is nice
if you get a guy on to lead of the inning it is nice to see him score without any other big hits.

but all in all i would rather Adam DUnn hit a 3 run home run
than Norris Hopper bunt his way on, steal second, be moved to third on a ground ball to the second basemen hit by Hairston, and score on a sack fly hit by Patterson.

Did anyone hear them say Edwin has a 15 game hitting streak. What are they talking about? That was snapped last Friday.
I think they are talking about his Beat the Streak on MLB.com
he picked himself every day but that one day cause he knew he wasn’t going to get a hit.
