Well, ya its May and all. But the fact that the Reds even HAVE a magic number is pretty awesome. lol

9-1 in their last 10.

Starters in that time:

IP - 73.2
H - 51
R - 17
ER - 17
BB - 14
SO - 56
ERA- 2.08

Seriously.....you have starting pitching THAT stingy, you put your team in a position to win EVERY TIME OUT. Yes, 3 of those games were against the terrible Pirates. But 3 were against the Cardinals, and 2 were against the Brewers who, despite their record, lead the league in runs scored (I believe).

Yes, it is still a long season, but these guys refuse to lose and if we have THIS sort of rotation all year, its gonna be a fun summer.....and MAYBE.......a fun October. :D

73.2 out of a possible 90. I'll take that ANY day of the week.

You've seen stellar pitching from all 5 pitchers in the Reds rotation before? WHEN?!

I think Jose Rijo and Tom Browning were involved.
