2008 - Daryl Thompson 0-1 3.60 1.80 4 6


Milford High grad and Kent State attendee John Van Benschoten makes his hometown debut tonight after getting called back up to the Majors earlier this week.  I'd like to say the Reds should put the smack down on him, but you and I both know how these things tend to turn out.  Honestly though, wouldn't it just be super swell to score some runs early and have a nice relaxing walk to victory?

Thompson makes his 3rd start of his career and his first at GABP and against an NL team.  I think it would be just dandy if he got his first MLB win too.  Don't you agree?

Righty-lefty straight down the board

Van Benschoten won’t know what do with himself!

Oh, and I wonder if John Van Benschoten gets mad at Jarrod Saltalamacchia for pipping him to the longest last name in major league history, sort of the same way I have a hatred of David Aardsma for stealing the first spot in the MLB Encyclopedia from Hank Aaron.

So, um.

The Courier-Journal has a piece on Josh Fogg’s latest start in Louisville, where he allowed four hits and walked two in eight-plus innings. He took the opportunity to whine that the problem was that he wasn’t pitching enough in Cincinnati:

Fogg made three April starts for the Reds before being moved to the bullpen. He made seven relief appearances.

“I sat down there a month and a half and didn’t pitch,” Fogg said. “I wasn’t stretched out whenever I got the chance to start again, so the opportunity to come down here and get stretched out was big for me.

“I needed to be able to throw 115 pitches every five days instead of throwing 12 pitches every three.”

So I know this is premature and all, but if Thompson keeps it up, and Volquez and Cueto keep looking good, what do we do with Fogg?

I was pretty impressed that Fogg has pitched into the 8th inning in his last three starts

I don’t really blame him too much for whining, since we did sit him for so long. But I also don’t blame Dusty for sitting him because he was terrible when he did pitch. If he is starting to put things together, then I think that makes it a lot easier to try and trade Bronson Arroyo. I love Bronson, but he’s about to get a huge salary bump next year, and I don’t think he’ll be worth the money. He’s basically league average at this point (with some wild swings towards both good and bad), which is what I’d expect of an improved Fogg. If we could get something decent for Arroyo, and if Fogg keeps pitching well in AAA, I’m happy to ship Bronson off and stick with Fogg for the rest of the year.

Looking at Van Benschoten's numbers

He certainly pitches like he’s from Cincinnati.

Hmm

My g/f’s cousin played with Johnny Van Benschoten at Kent State. He always tells me how big of a mistake it was for them to make him a pitcher. Claims he could have been an above average hitting RF with a plus plus arm.

Anyone?

Anyone know the extent of Freel’s injury? mlbtraderumors.com reported a few teams had interest in him but I haven’t heard how bad the hammy was and if he’d even play again this year.

This is the worst one so far. The reason why Dunn gets on base consistently is controlled by the pitchers, and he’s gotten lucky the last 5 years. Any way you read that argument, it’s completely stupid.
