belated props to John Sickels
and Slyde for posting his Maloney analysis. John almost exactly predicted his ending line.
Stewart gave up his first run in AA- but I think the Reds can accept 6 IP 1 ER 2hit 8k/3BB line.
Homer Bailey and Travis Wood up today.
But right now I dont think the Reds have ever matched this much quality young starting pitching. It will be interesting how Walt handles this depth.
Why does it seem like
Arroyo gets more day starts than anyone else. Dude generally sucks in day games.
Wear something sexy to my funeral.
Sorry, Pops

Dusty's been watching True Blood
He thinks that since Arroyo loves the night so much he must be a vampire and dusty is trying to kill him for Jesus

Votto
Anyone with a good gaydar get a reading on Votto? I’m not saying that’s what’s going on, but it would explain quite a bit about what kind of pressure he’s under to handle his success perfectly.
I don know Joey Votto, obviously.
He could be married for all I know. There had been some talk over the last decade of when the first openly gay superstar would surface and how baseball (and it’s fans) would handle it. So it crossed my mind.
I could see someone being stressed out from the symptoms of inner ear problems
The whole deal with personal issues is pretty odd, I’ll give you that.
I think it was all triggered by
that super-creepy interview to which he was subjected not long ago.
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
it's not like being married means you're not gay
Just ask Mrs. McGreevey.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
Very true
But it’s not fair to the guy or his family to suggest such a thing if he’s not. If he is married and/or has a family, he’d have bigger issues to deal with than being accepted by the baseball community.
Well...
I think I basically agree with you, but I don’t think it matters if he has a wife or kids. I think I just misinterpreted what you said the first time around, but I’m wary of (1) discussing outing people, and (2) implying that it’s a negative thing it is to be non-heterosexual. Reading back, you focused more on how it might be tough for him because of others’ views, but I’m still wary.
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
All right

Nix has kind of sucked since he started batting cleanup, eh?
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
78 pitches through 6...
they’re really making Wells work for it.
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
And according to GD they've swung at a TON of balls
especially Nix. This offense is really depressing right now, and with no hope of EdE or Votto back soon, it ain’t gettin’ any better.
One thought I had today. Since we’ll still be short for decent bats when we travel to play the AL teams, any chance Dusty uses Owings as the DH? To me it’s a no-brainer, but that doesn’t mean Dusty will do it.
Isn't there a slanket somewhere you should be filling with your farts?

Can't say that I'm impressed with the pinch hit usage this game
The Reds should have pinch hit for Dickerson in the 7th. That run would have been huge. Then why bring a guy out to pinch hit that hasn’t played in a week when you desperately need a hit in the 8th?
"It seems like we're not hitting because we're not getting hits." - Dusty being Dusty
Agreed
I thought the same thing. Then I figured they weren’t PHing for Dickerson since there’d really be noone to play OF (although I suppose Hairston could’ve moved to OF is Rosales PH)
Regardless, if you were willing to play Taveras in the field, why not PH for CDick with Owings and send Taveras out there? And WHY would you hit Taveras there? I guess he needed to use him now so he can get a couple innings in the OF, just to see how the old hammy is doing. Cause, you know, that’s more important than winning the game
Isn't there a slanket somewhere you should be filling with your farts?
Its also pretty frustrating
… how this sounds like a home game for the Cubs. Why would anyone be a Cubs’ fan away from Chicago? They’re a terrible franchise.

free Paul Janish
who is the last guy on the bench right now.
Two games in a row go to OT, and he’s glued to the bench throughout.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
So I asked this yesterday,
but seriously, how long til he gets benched. He’s becoming this year’s Patterson. At least CPat played ok defense, and he was OPSing .592 after 167 PAs. Gonzo: .554
This has got to stop
Isn't there a slanket somewhere you should be filling with your farts?
Um
perhaps you haven’t been listening to GG. Gonzalez gives you brilliant defense. Didn’t you see that play earlier where the ball was hit right to his glove? GG said that was an outstanding play. He’s better than Barry Larkin and Pokey Reese combined!

I think under the common law rule
After 10 years of being on the roster and not playing, you are optioned to the minors by operation of law.
I do not like the bunt with Hernandez there
you have to know your personnel. I’d much rather take my chances with Hernandez, no outs, and a man on 2nd than with either Rosie or Gonzalez in any situation.
"It seems like we're not hitting because we're not getting hits." - Dusty being Dusty
I wouldn't
We lived and died with Rosales there. I was confident he’d get a fly ball to the OF or punch a groundball past a drawn-in infielder. As it was, his cheap-ass bat shattered and it took some distance from his flyball.
not a good piece of ash, eh?

You didn't think Rosales had another walk-off Baltimore chop in him?

There's no way you're drafting Matt Purke
"I didn't realize his velocity was that high," said Macha, noting that radar readings aren't flashed during exhibition games.
No, I mean, there is NO way you're drafting Matt Purke
He’s asking for a ton of money. He’s going to fall well past you guys. Maybe past us, too, which will be sad. Matt Purke: Red Sox.
"I didn't realize his velocity was that high," said Macha, noting that radar readings aren't flashed during exhibition games.
To elaborate
Klein HS (Tex.) LHP Matt Purke is looking for “Rick Porcello’s deal” in the upcoming draft, according to industry sources familiar with his demands. Porcello, who was drafted 27th overall by Detroit in the 2007 draft, received a deal worth $7.285 million in guaranteed money, including a $3.58 million signing bonus, both of which eclipsed the previous records for a contract signed by a high school pitcher, held by Josh Beckett.Purke is committed to TCU and probably moves out of the first round as a result of this demand, with few if any teams willing to commit that kind of money to a high school pitcher, but he could end up receiving a deal close to Porcello’s on August 15th with a team that takes him later on day one or even day two and tries to wait him out.
"I didn't realize his velocity was that high," said Macha, noting that radar readings aren't flashed during exhibition games.
S'up guys - took a break at work and found that we'd not lost! Game still ongoing, another George Grande BB Special!

You're right
he would’ve hit the ball far enough to score the runner from third in the bottom of the 10th, so that play never would’ve existed.

ee
would have tossed a ball in the stands earlier in the game, the runner would have scored, and there would have not been extra innings. OR he would have hit a walkoff homer after not getting the bunt down and won the game. either or.

Interesting perspective from Dusty
Apparently, Votto is not superhuman enough to go from not seeing a pitch for a week or so to being activated. But it’s perfectly acceptable for Janish remain frozen in carbon on the bench just in case.
Can we at least get a "professional at bat" comment from Dusty after the game
Close pitch to take there, Paul. But you’re still a better option.
damn
Quite a battle by Janish, but he lost.
