He'll be fine. I'm not worried about Joey.

I don't know why Dusty brings in Chapman in a non save situation when it is his 3rd straight game with a big series starting tomorrow night. He'll probably be "unavailable" tomorrow night!

Seriously, is there any doubt Cingrani should replace either Leake or Arroyo in the playoff rotation? I mean, the guy would be in the Cy Young conversation if he threw another 75-100 innings. His numbers are off the charts good.

Great win, and great series win. First series win against STL in 7 attempts. That surprised me.
Fuck the Cardinals wooo weeee!

I don't think ANYONE believes that ML or BA should be above him in the postseason. The only talk we get is from the DB haters that assume he will put BA and ML above him.
It will be tricky what happens. I believe the reds HAVE to set the rotation to have Latos pitch either the 1 game playoff or the first game of the series if they win the division. They need to get that set up.
After that is where it gets a little tricky. The Pirates are the last series of the season. The Reds should be right there with a chance to win the division, but I think ya gotta leave the Latos bullet in the gun at almost any cost. What if it comes down to the last day, reds/pirates are tied for the division and Latos is waiting in the wings and ready. Throw him? I think so.
It will def be tricky how DB plays it. Latos HAS to be ready to throw either A. The one game playoff. B. Last game of the season if the reds/pirates are tied or C. one of the 1st three games of the series in the playoffs.
I will say this..NO MATTER what DB does people will bitch if it doesn't work, or if it does work out perfectly will say the reds won in spite of him
TC basically said "fuck you guys, if you wont do anything then I will" last night with the bunt hit and stolen base.
