Ondrusek optioned to Louisville for Navarro while Meso serves 2 game suspension. Of course, Heisey earned himself a seat on the bench after his 3 hit night last evening. Amazing.

Cliff Lee throws a perfect game. Reds lose 19-0.

25 pitch first for homer. Need some good at bats this half inning to give him some rest.

Heisey 3 hits yesterday... And... He gets benched.

I had tweet typed up for Fay, but then I thought better of it. He gets a little butthurt when somebody questions Baker.

Like others have said, Heisey isn't great, but at the very least the playing time should be split close to 50/50. Stubbs sucks

I've given up hope of him getting less pt all I want is for him to hit like 7th where he belongs. He fuckin terrible at the plate and is a complete waste at the 2 spot.

BUT we're winning!!! Dusty has led us to 70+ wins. (John Fay response)

I love how he (and others) completely overlook how good our pitching has been. This is the Oakland Billy Beane corollary. (i.e. somebody gets all of the credit for their team's success when in reality the pitching staff is really really good). People forget he had Mulder, Zito, and Hudson all in their primes.

I know Bruce was coming out of his slump. But he really should have sat tonight. He's lost against lee.

I just hate when people use the "but we're winning" excuse to stand pat and not change anything. They don't care how much better we could be. Teams that just settle rarely win it all.

That would involve Heisey playing and he is only of worth off the bench.

Is this going to be the first time in 5 games that Homer makes it to the 6th inning? Good luck!!

Bullpen has sucked the last 2 days. Battled again, but the phillies own us once again.

The Toddfather is money in the bank. Quickly becoming my favorite Red behind Votto.

What sucks is Frazier will be relegated to the bench when Votto comes back.

I honestly think this will be one decision dusty gets right. They'll give Frazier the majority of the starts.
