W-L ERA WHIP K BB
2010 - Jaime Garcia 12-6 2.33 1.29 118 58


This series means a lot more to the Cardinals right now than it does the Reds. Basically, the Cardinals need a sweep. Down by 8 games with 31 to play (29 for the Reds), they need to make a surge if they want to get back in the race. The Reds, on the other hand, simply need to not tank. Playing around .500 the rest of the way pretty much forces the Cardinals to play their best baseball of the year. The thing is, I expect the Reds to play at least a couple of games over .500 the rest of the way. That is to say, unless the Cardinals get a sweep, this race is close to done.

Because of that, I expect the Reds to play much more relaxed this series than their last one against the Cardinals. This year's team seems to be one that can easily put the past behind them. I also expect that they learned a lesson in the last series, that they need to play calm. They've been much more calm in the last 3 weeks and it has showed in the results on the field. The Cards have some good pitchers going this weekend, so it would surprise me if the Reds win only one game, but I do not expect them to get swept again.

And hey, even if they do get swept, it's still a 5-game lead. Like we've been saying, it doesn't matter how they play against the Cardinals if they can beat up on everyone else.

Go Reds!

So I predict we win one game this weekend, but not the one you think

I think Bailey pitches lights-out on Sunday and the Reds beat up on Carpenter. Joey Votto will take him deep and stand and admire his hit a split-second longer than Carpenter thinks is appropriate, which will cause him to have an epileptic fit on the mound, throwing his glove and tearing his uniform, Old-Testament style.

useful information and fya gold though
CUETO OUT: Johnny Cueto left the team to return to the Dominican Republic for a family emergency.

It depends when his family subsides, Dusty Baker said. We plan on (him starting Tuesday.)

If Cueto isnt back, the Reds could slip Edinson Volquez into that slot. Right now, Volquez is scheduled to start for Single-A.

RHODES READY: Arthur Rhodes is available to pitch tonight. Rhodes had been held out for three games with a sore foot.

CABRERA TOMORROW: Orlando Cabrera was activated Friday. Baker said he will be in the lineup tomorrow.

I always give them an extra when they say theyre ready, he said.

Backup plan never came together to go to St. Loser for a game. Had a place to stay lined up, but couldn’t get reasonably priced tix.
One brother says he’s off now, so Cincy trip back on.
Call today and he’s on call for the weekend and thought likely he’d be called in.
Now the inlaws are going to visit us this weekend. Coming up from Memphis tomorrow.
My brother calls me again this evening, and says he’s not answering the phone and come on up.

to not give up any fucking 4 RBI hits this series. WTF was all that shit about?
But you are correct. No time to get complacent. It is the Cards, so we’ll be up. And throwing the same 3 pitchers again, I like our chances.
