Arroyo vs Pelfrey
Let's go ahead and give David Murphy 6 total bases and call it a good deal.

Cairo has to get a day off. I'd play Lewis for Bruce.
Let's have Yonder in LF, Heisey in CF and Lewis in RF.....that would be golden.

I was thinking abomination....but yeah....the Reds suck.
3 errors were given.....Bruce more than deserved one (but topped it off with his grat performance at the plate (0-5 with 4 K)......the ball under Cairo and off of Renteria....did it advance the runner from 1st to 3rd...if it did it should've been an error. Missing Rolen's defense some.

Do not think the ruled that an error but it may have. Bruce and the golden sombrero...I am thinking this team has had more of them this year than ever before!
This team is done. Yeah..they are only 5 out or whatever, but at some point in your season ya gotta realize you are what your record says you are.
Start seeing what the young guys can do. Do not get dillusional and trade for a big time bat or arm if it takes away the young future of the team.

No, just had a pinch hit rope double down the line.
He is supposed to start tonight though.

Fay said 55% Alonso, 35% Heisey, 10% Lewis
I'm fine with that.....but would like Heisey or Lewis mixed in with Stubbs a decent bit and Bruce some.
Heisey was 2/4 last night...a 3rd hit would've guaranteed him some bench tonight.
Jay Bruce......bothced play in OF that could've picked up Cueto and Votto....but didn't even slide to attempt and then goes 0-5 with 4 K........but I think he has had success against the large Pelfrey.

Bruce has re gressed on defense this year. There were a couple of plays that woulda been a good play by someone else but I thought he should make.
Resting on his laurels possibly?

Well, assuming he wasn't going to sit out any games, they play the Mets 2 more times and Giants 3. That would be 1 extra game. This way he will have to face DTtrain though, which is much better than Arroyo for us.

but had he not been traded we would've faced him 4 times......now we must face him 5 times..........5-4 = 2 right?

They still have 5 vs Mets, only 3 vs Giants. But 3 of those vs Mets he was going to be gone regardless.
