Remember a few days ago when this team was kicking some ass and we thought everything was awesome? Well, at least the weather's been great!
Here's a fun stat: Micah Owings has taken the loss in each of his last 7 starts going back to June of last season. Okay, it's not so much fun as sucky, but in the words of the great Dusty Baker, "he's due." Owings hasn't been all that effective on the mound or at the plate as a starter this year. His average fastball has been nearly 2.5 MPH slower than it was just two years ago, and the movement is down on all of his pitches so far. Luckily for Owings, Homer Bailey hasn't exactly been lights out either in Triple-A.
According to Wikipedia, Kenshin "Kawakami is known as a crafty veteran who is said to throw a 90 MPH fastball, a slow curveball, and a very good cutter." A crafty veteran who is also a rookie facing the Reds for the first time? Thank goodness he's not left-handed or the Reds would be better off just forfeiting this game.
The Reds were reportedly interested in Kawakami during the off-season, but that rumor didn't carry on too long as the Braves signed him to a 3-year, $23M deal in January. He's pitched alright so far, but has given up a few more walks than I'm sure he'd like. It's sad, but once again, the Reds best option may be to try to exploit the walks, if they happen. I have very little confidence in this offense otherwise.
It's going to be another beautfiul day at the ballpark, with temperatures inching close to 90 degrees. Hooray for Summer baseball in the Spring! Hopefully we'll see the Reds salvage one game in this series today!

Dickerson and Gonzalez are sitting today, making the lineup:
Taveras CF
Nix LF
Votto 1B
Phillips 2B
Bruce RF
Encarnacion 3B
Hernandez C
Janish SS
Owings P
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
what?
He’s sitting Gonzalez just when he’s getting hot?

With an off day next week, do you think Owings will get skipped in the rotation
If he doesn’t perform well today?
from the guy posting at fya's blog...
Joey Votto, Brandon Phillips and Edwin Encarnacion have played every inning of every game.
Interesting. I mean, Votto makes sense. But, um…
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
I want Phillips playing, for defense if nothing else
Edwin… could probably use a break.
by Brendanukkah on Apr 26, 2009 12:48 PM EDT up reply actions
I get that...
though how bad would Janish be at either position? Assuming a break could be helpful.
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
Yeah, the fact that Janish and Hanigan haven't gotten more time is just silly
Are they likely to keep up their torrid pace? No, but at least they’re torrid now, so why not play them instead of the other black holes? Le sigh.
by Brendanukkah on Apr 26, 2009 12:53 PM EDT up reply actions
It would be understandable if it were one or the other...
if BP, EdE and Ramon were hitting decently well while Janish and Hanigan were tearing it up, I could see leaving them on the bench. If Janish and Hanigan weren’t hitting too well while the others completely stuck it up, same thing.
But it seems hard to leave them on the bench in this situation.
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
i think "it's still early" still applies
but only for about another week. if BP and EdE and Gonzo are still not hitting through the Astros series i think you’ll see them get days off. all in all, those three guys are still better ballplayers (not the mention being the vets) than Paul Janish, so they will continue to get the benefit of the doubt. unfortunately, i think Hairston will be getting the majority of the sub-starts.
Consider the Eskimos.

you really think gonzo is better than Janish?
i feel like Janish is a superior defender, and probably an equal if not superior hitter.
Bloop
by justin007000 on Apr 26, 2009 1:03 PM EDT up reply actions
well
Gonzo is a complicated case. we have Gonzo’s entire career telling us he’s better than Janish. He’s got about 9.5 full seasons in the majors and is yet only 32. he’s played good D and hit with a bit of pop. Janish, on the other hand, has throughout his minor league career hit just about how Gonzo has through his MAJOR league career.
of course, Gonzo missed last year with a devastating knee injury. and that is the X-factor here. is he the same player he used to be? if so, then he’s definitely better than Janish. if he’s not, then, well, its too early to tell either way. Janish is not a top prospect. he’s likely a UT infielder who will stick around for a number of years because of his glove, like Juan Castro. its not like playing Gonzo is blocking the next Barry Larkin.
its not an envious position for the Reds to be in. Gonzo is owed like 5 mil this year whether he plays or not. it makes good sense to see if he can be worth it.

Is Sea Bass's contract up this year?
by johnny cueto thinks we're sellouts on Apr 26, 2009 1:23 PM EDT up reply actions
he has a 2010 option
which seems unlikely to be picked up at this point
"It seems like we're not hitting because we're not getting hits." - Dusty being Dusty
Nah. Gonzo is a much
better hitter than Janish. Am I the only who remembers Paul’s fascinating impression of Rafael Belliard. He’s Caesar Izturius with an easier to spell name.
Yeah, though...
it’s possible that Janish really has improved his hitting this year. The small sample size so far is promising, but I guess we’ll see if it holds up.
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
I think you're right
In two sense, Gonzo needs to sit occasionally and we need to see what Janish can do. Gonzo walks after this year and Uncle Walt needs to know if he has an all glove SS in the system or if has no glove/no hit.
Owings looks good in the 1st

Fair enough. Although I would think you would give him until the
All-Star break. Maybe I am more patient than most, but I do think that you have to stick with him for at least this long. His issue is control, and I do not think that going to minors would inherently fix that. Moreover, before today’s game Homer was not exactly killing AAA.
You are right. No sense in wild overreactions based on one AAA start

Fay suggested sending Encarnacion down and calling up Rosales.
I can’t see them doing that, though.
I suspect Rosales just got the day off.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
I would imagine so.
Maybe even Dickerson, I would hope not though. It seems that Rosales could play left in a pinch too, so that would mean one of the extra outfielders. I do not think they would send Encarcion down either, that is not a Dusty-esque move.
So far as I know
They said the opposite. That there was no place for Rosales to play, so he wasn’t getting called up.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
I hope I am not totally hallucinating, but I thought they mentioned during the TV broadcast today
that there would be a possible roster move before the next road trip. I was simultaneously making bread and watching T.V. so it is possible I misheard George Grande.
i think what you heard is that it's the guy that announces roster move's birthday
you know he and his family are watching back home in ohio…big reds fans they are.

It’s so much more fun struggling to win when #4,6 and #2 (if C-Dick’s in) guys in the lineup are almost guaranteed outs. You have to be so much more innovative in how you scrape out runs, by which of course I mean we’re fucked unless Jay and Joey go off.
