I mean, Dusty can see the .203 batting average, right?
That’s not some fancy schmancy “invented stat.” It’s been in the game for over a century. And no matter what era you’re in, .203 is not good. Now, being a baseball guy, he should know to not keep putting that .203 at the top of the lineup, right?

Since Arroyo is a softer tosser, it might not be as hard on his arm. Still, I’m almost of the opinion that whoever is pitching just groove a Ryan Franklin special on the first pitch and let this stupid game be over. It’s not worth us totally fucking our pitching staff.

I thought he was a backup 3rd baseman or something. I mean, have you seen him pitch?

We drafted Trevor Hoffman as a shortstop
Everyone always says he should have stayed with us. I tend to think that we would have kept him as a mediocre shortstop, instead of the all-time saves leader. But our bullpen has been fine without him.

Harang is awesome
Harang should be pouting for a trade. Last year the bullpen kept blowing his saves, now he has to go in and save the bullpen. This year, he’s getting no run support.
Why isn’t he demanding to be traded? Grif is treated with velvet gloves when Harang has been a rock star. Volquez is shiny and new but Harang has shown a fantastic consistency in being the Reds ace.
Here’s to you. Mr. Harang.
