Not sure if they'll be able to get 5 innings in or not but they start at 12:35.


I look for Rolen to get the day off because he was on base too much yesterday and his at bats are too professional. Don't give him a day off after going 1-8 and playing 8 straight games....give it too him when he looks comfortable.


Heisay on base 4 times.....look for him to sit.

Reds pitchers need to keep working quickly!



I'll predict a 4th inning rainout.

Fabulous chance for the Reds to get a sweep.

Zach Duke is 3-6 in his career against Cincinnati.

Homer Bailey, despite lackluster career numbers, has owned the Pirates more than any other team.

Bailey career against Pittsburgh: 4-0, 25.1 IP, 19 K's, 2.13 ERA.

Reds need the sweep with the Cards coming into town for 3 this weekend.

Playing Pittsburgh has been some good batting practice for the Reds.

The Pirates RIGHT now are one of the worst teams I've ever seen

They swing at everything (2 Inn by Homer he has given up 2 hits ....yet only 20 pitches thru 2 innings), have no threat in the lineup and pitching is funny.

The Pirates and Astros are awful.

Reds playing well with pitchers working quickly, getting ahead and Phillips batting 2nd.

Cincy is surprising a lot of people right now with their play. Not sure if they'll catch St. Louis, but Chicago and Milwaukee aren't doing too much real special right now either

^^^As I said last night, I kept tuning in cause Cueto was pitching well. Pirates swung at nearly 3/4s of the pitches. It was ridiculously bad.

Thru five complete, still 5-0, and Bailey with but 51 pitches. Pirates must want to be sure it is a legal game also when the rains come!

Nice to get Bailey dealing and hopefully Dustbag sees that Hannigan should keep increasing his playing time
