Is it really that hard for Dusty to give a 5 minute scouting report on Rosenthal before the game?
I'll give Dusty a pass on this one. The guy is going to throw 90% fastballs. Like Aroldis. Be ready to hit it or GTFO. Frazier and Cozart, like normal, simply CAN'T hit it. Hanigan didn't have a bad at-bat.

Going to walk the lead off batter which will lead to the loss.

If he walks, the Reds have walked the lead off hitter 4 of the last 6 innings...

He didn't throw 90% fastballs.

These guys looked silly hitting against him, over 2 innings. This is a talented offensive team; no way they should be looking silly like that. Against a fucking bullpen guy.

Or 5 seconds

Dusty: guys he throws fuckin hard, swing at every first pitch twice.

Team: ok coach

LOL.

Lecure did it. Broxton did it. Hoover did it. You're going to get burned doing this so often...

He threw like 4 change-ups...probably could've thrown more if he wanted just like Chapman could throw more sliders. But if they can't touch the FB, why?

Is there any doubt Molina gets a hit here?

They basically looked like me, you and S&L hitting...nothing was shown at all towards having a clue as to what Rosenthal does.

How are you giving Dusty a pass on it? He's not fucking Cy Young. They shouldn't look so bad 2 consecutive innings.

All 6 batters had 0% chance. 0%. That's on Dusty and the hitting coaches.

That's going to be the ball game.
