2009 - Mat Latos 1-1 3.72 1.14 9 3



W-L ERA WHIP K BB
2009 - Aaron Harang 5-11 4.25 1.43 110 30


What an exciting day today, huh?  I know, Wladimir Balentien isn't exactly the savior that the Reds need, but hey at least they made a deal.  We know it's possible now, right?  That should keep us on our toes for the next couple of days.

Twenty-one-year old Mat Latos was the Padres 11th round draft pick in 2006 and has made 2 starts in the big leagues since being called up directly from Double-A after putting up some impressive numbers in the minors.  In his minor league career, he struck out 10.5 batters per 9 IP while walking just 2.3 per 9, which led to an ERA of 2.49 and a WHIP of just 1.06.  Some impressive numbers, but he's still young.  Not that it matters much to this Reds team.

Latos and the Padres have to be favored to get the win today simply because they are facing Aaron Harang.  Oh sure, Harang may pitch a complete game and only give up 2 runs, but we all know that doesn't give him any real shot at getting the victory, does it?  Not that Harang has done much to keep himself in the game of late anyway, posting a 5.53 ERA over his last 7 starts, though he does have an awesome 40/10 K/BB ratio.  Frankly, at this point, until I see some evidence stating otherwise, I'm going to just go ahead and blame his teammates for all of his problems.  Harang doesn't deserve it.

Something new for tonight!

After tonight's game, I'm going to try something brand new: a post-game talk show!  That's right, my appearance on Mo Egger's show has gone to my head and thanks to the site TalkShoe, I'm hoping that I can pull off something resembling a post-game show immediately following the end of the game.  Currently, because I can't figure out how to do it otherwise, it is scheduled for 10pm, but in reality it will start shortly after the end of the game.  I'll post a notice on the site when it starts.  You will be able to call in to a toll free number and everything! Though that doesn't mean I will put you on the "air," but I'll try.  You can check out the site through the button below for all of the details on what you need to do to join the show.  It's probably going to be awkward and uncomfortable, so in other words, like just about every day on this site.

Now they’ve switched to a format where they play foreign club teams (this year it’s Everton, starring American goalkeeper Tim Howard), so the games are a little more competitive. Still pretty decent scoring though. Last year MLS beat West Ham 3-2.

Singing even.

Eighty-five percent of the f*ckin' world is working. The other fifteen percent come out here. A f*ckin' playground for the cocks*ckers.

2 game losing streak.

It’s been real. Post-game show time.

What an attrocious, terrible, god-awful piece of shit this team is.

We're certainly establishing a tradition of winning, no?

So, how many days ’til football?

I've slowed up on the countdown on facebook, but I think I'll get back into it here shortly

Aaron Harang has to go.

With every start, his trade value diminishes.

Soon, we’ll be lucky to get a bag of balls and a few taped up batting practice bats.

He simply cannot get major league hitters out anymore on an consistent basis.

Have to run, but the postgame chat was great

actually way better than most radio stuff. There wasn’t any nonsensical yelling lol.

Thanks for the minor league hotness update, it did not go unappreiated ;)

Sorry Imissed the end of the game

and even sorried that I was unavailable for Slyde’s PlayhouseRadio Show
I hate it when I have a’feeling’ and I make a prediction and am as ‘off’ as I was tonight.
But I do blame Dusty.
Should be leading Gonzo off…actually shouldn’t be playing Gonzo
Lead off with Jerry Jr.
Should be playing Nix. Let him have a goodly number of games to either get his shit on track or DFA him
Can’t Keep Batting BP 5th
Shoulda pulled Harang after the 2nd batter.

So when is the new guy Wadmore coming?
This ought to be good. Delmonte McFuffbag with power.
