Jon Lieber vs Edinson Volquez

Complete Coverage >

Mark Duncan/AP (Lieber), Tony Avelar/AP (Volquez)

	W-L	ERA	WHIP	K	BB
2008 - Jon Lieber	2-1	1.86	1.20	9	2

	W-L	ERA	WHIP	K	BB
2008 - Edinson Volquez	4-1	1.27	1.20	42	18

Harang took over the major league strikeout lead with Johan Santana last night, but Edinson needs just 6 to pass them. I don't see why he can't do that today.

But the story here is probably Lieber. He's making his first start since last June, replacing Rich Hill, whom the Cubs optioned to Iowa on Saturday. Lieber probably won't last too long, as he hasn't pitched 5 innings in a game this season. He's not really striking guys out, but he's been effective.

Let's win.

smart move for him to stay in college...

While he risks injury, he can finish his education and enjoy being a stud one more year… Who knows what the NFL will bring for him… or what position he’ll play.

Replay

Has anyone heard if this is going to be retelevised at all before the next Monday Night Reds Rewind Classic. I didn’t even know it was on until I got home Monday night from work and was flipping through channels and saw the game on. I picked it up in the 7th inning and would love to see the whole game. I will put DVR on timer for the next games so I can see them when I get home from work.

I have looked through the TV Guide and FSN Ohio TV listings and don’t show any mention of the games yet. FSN Ohio lineups though don’t show anything after 6pm for next Monday so will have to see if they begin to list them.
