I didn’t have a problem sending him back out for a couple more hitters, but after that “homer” Homer was done. Yet, he wastes 5 more pitches.

Hi kids

Just got done putting my house on the market. Any of you kids looking for a 4-br, 2-bath house with a 2 car garage in Cincinnati? Or perhaps I could interest you in 2-br, 1.5 bath condo in beautiful Ann Arbor? We’re here to deal!

BTW, I found out today that my brother reads the site, so “Hi, brother.” I’ll be on my best behavior from here on out.

“Save him for defensive purposes.”

This guy is reserved for defensive purposes only, replacing our best offensive player . . . and he’s occupying a spot on the 25-man roster.

Krivsky's contracts:

Arroyo: 9.5
Harang: 10.5
Cordero: 12
Freel: 4
Gonzo: 6
Phillips: 6.5=

48.5. Great job Wayne. Add Griffs 4 mill to buyout and that leaves the Reds with 20-30 million to spend on the rest of the roster and 19 spots plus Adam Dunn. Resign Dunn and the Reds have about 10 million.

But you can’t knock the Harang/Arroyo contracts so much. Harang is hurt and Arroyo has bounced back. Phillips’ contract…what’s so bad about 6.5 for Brandon Phillips?

Gonzo…the only person who could’ve seen that coming is, well, pretty much every Reds fan who’s ever seen this team give millions to any veteran.

Sean Henry was replaced in the field during the third inning in tonight’s game. Anyone know what happened? He was hit by a pitch, was caught stealing, and missed a ball in left that turned into a triple. But no other mention of him getting hurt.

by Brian B on Jul 21, 2008 11:24 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

so let me get this straight

because Dusty used Corderro 4 days in a row, he didn’t have his best stuff and couldn’t hold a 1 run lead. Arroyo could have started the 9th, he was only at 95 pitches, and he could have been given 15 or 20 more pitches. Dusty felt he needed to send Corderro back out there so he could recover from the night before, and due to that he was needed 4 days in a row.

I would absolutely positively take Pete Mackanin over this retarded quote spouting, walk hating, veteran overvaluing moron. Lord, this team is still going to end up getting credit for a turnaround under this incompent turd even though he’ll cost us 8 or 9 games all by himself.

Btw, can any of you BBref guys tell me what Cordero’s ERA on 3 and 4 days of continual appearances is this year? I’m going to guess around 16.00

Based on this season, it looks like he should be pitching every other day, doesn’t it?

It's a lousy night to be an atheist!

Yeah No kidding

Don’t let him sit for 3 days either. Thanks for the splits Slyde, I hope this past week isn’t indicative of the CoCo we’re going to have on the payroll for the next 3 1/3 years

I got 99 problems but a job ain't one.

Cordero had only pitched two days in a row

He did not pitch on Saturday

It's a lousy night to be an atheist!

whoops

working kills me because i lose track of the reds. But 4 out of the last 5 days probably isn’t for the best.
