1 in a row. May I start every other game thread of the season.

Likely the first start for Mesoraco and Hannahan, maybe Paul...

Want exciting? Joe Blanton went to UK!

All joking aside, the pitching match-up clearly favors Cincinnati...and IMO, I can't justify sitting guys for any other reason than they suck.

This isn't July. Play your best lineup (sans the C spot).

Meso might start, but I can't imagine sitting Frazier already.

This had been a surprisingly even series. No matter the outcome, I have hope for a great season. I will miss the Astros though. That was my only chance to watch the reds in person.

Why is Bronson the #4 guy over Homer Bailey?

Doesn't Baker want to keep Arroyo and Leake separated because they have similar stuff? Or something like that?

PRobably something like that I would guess. 3 hard throwers and then two softies......

Not that any team gets to see all 5, mostly just 3.

Trout with his 5th K already this season. He do well in ST? Could see their fans getting a bit frustrated if he struggles this year after bulking up. Getting strong is a great thing, but if ya sacrifice alot of your flexibility especially in baseball that could be a bad thing

Hanigan bails out Cozart's failure on the Reds' 2nd try of the inning with an AB with runner on 3rd and less than two out. Reds get a run thanks to the error by Trout.

Angels get their RBI on the first attempt with none out and runner on 3rd. they had a runner on first though, too, so a good job by Arroyo to give up just the one from where he was when Albert came up.

I dont think ive seen votto be aggressive in any bat outside of the game winner last night. Taking a lot of good pitches.
