VOTTO WITHDRAWAL LOG, Day 2: I should probably empty out those Coke bottles. The Reds are 4-1 since the Break. Is someone toying with me? Or some...THING?
Not sure whether they'll get this one in tonight. Thunderstorms are in the forecast all night, though the worst of it might miss to the North.
Mat Latos will try to be dominant tonight. Failing that, he'll strand a bunch of runners.
Name-stacks after the jump.

Bullpen notes:
- The bullpen has gotten a workout since the break, which makes me think they should have used Redmond as a spacer while they still had him.
- It was only 4 pitches for Chapman last night, but he's made 4 appearances in the last 5 games (which involves the whole warm-up shebang).
