It's not your money
He's a definite upgrade to the pen, so as long as he doesn't hamstring your team from making other moves, you should be glad to have him...sitting on the bench in critical situations.
He's extremely quick and good.
When Did This Year Become Last Year
"Never drink a beer from a Brewer with a gay picnic area."
really though
this really isn't the bullpens fault. They threw 3 innings and gave up a run, i mean it can be argued more would have scored if it weren't the bottom of the 10th, but this game was lost by the offense not the pitching.

When your 9 hitter is batting .526, that ain't a bad position to be in.
Jason Kendall, fuck the heck?
I hate David Weathers.
Now that we actually have real pitchers in our bullpen, can we just get rid of him?
seriously?
I don't think he is at the top of the depth chart, but I think he can serve a purpose.

by justin007000 on Apr 8, 2008 11:31 PM EDT up reply actions
Top of depth chart does not equal good pitcher
If that purpose you speak of is mop-up duty, then yes he serves a purpose.
He was lucky last year.
Now he's overpaid, without upside, and his luck has run out. He's not a good pitcher, and he has no spot in this team's future. There's no point to him being on the team.
i give him a little more time
i have been concerned by his periphals too, as you can see in my prior comments on RR. I don't want to see him as the top setup man. I wish Bray were in Cincinnati, to handle the 7th inning work, with Burton in the 8th. But if he still sucks in 4 weeks I am all for DFA'ing his ass. I think it is a bad idea to DFA him based on 3 appearances.

Looked like
the Reds hit the ball hard: Phillip's pin ball out and 2 line drives straight at the left fielder, Dunn being robbed twice by baby Cecil, the one that Bill Hall snagged and threw from his knees. Nothing seemed to drop in (besides Dunn's bobble on the potential play at the plate during the first run).
I haven't checked but I imagine there was major bitching on the Hopper for Votto switch. That seemed like a waste.

Jim Day: "Now, I'm not a mathematician."
Slyde, do you still like him like him?
Now a question of etiquette; as I pass, do I give you the ass or the crotch...?
I'm pleased that he's done well
and I hope he continues to improve, but you can't judge a player based on so few at-bats.
As "well" he's done so far, his season OBP is still .286, which is unacceptable for a regular lead-off hitter. His slugging (.692!) has overshadowed (and perhaps made up for) his low on-base percentage. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say he's not going to continue slugging around .700 this season.
When his slugging drops, we'll all go back to hating him at the lead-off spot. But for now I'll give the guy his props and pray that he continues to have a flukey slugging year. Because I love this team and want them to kick ass.
I've got a plan and it's as hot as my pants...

I never hated Joe Randa either
I just wasn't ready to build the team around him.
It's important to remember that we've only finished 5% of the season so far. I'm not changing my opinion of a player based on such a small portion of the season.
That being said, I'm damn happy that he's hitting something because the rest of the offense ain't getting it done. Hopefully he'll still be going strong once the other guys come around.
