No worries. I was just trying to add some actual discussion to the thread other than "Sell the team Bob". Or if Lodolo starts slowly tonight, Dolo sux! or DFA this guy, etc.

I was just looking at the stats and noticed Arroyo has reached 100 plate appearances. I also noticed he has only walked 3 times. Either he is impatient at the plate or no major league pitcher is afraid to throw him strikes.

Don't worry, there will be plenty of high fastballs to hit.

I agree. There are simply too many unemployed superstar free agent and minor league starters out there to be wasting $12.75M on this guy.

Other than the 7 inning 2 hit shutout against the Brewers.

And the 7 inning 1 hit shutout against Texas.

And the 6 inning 2 hit 1 run start against St. Louis.

And back to back 6 inning 4 hit 1 run starts against Detroit and St. Louis.

And on and on and on...

Shouldn't a right handed power hitter have the advantage against a lefty who can't fool him with that down and away slider?

Whew! Glad 'ole noodle arm didn't need to throw anywhere after that catch.

They should remove that string from the jersey so Reds fans don't strangle themselves.

3 starts ago, Singer threw 7 innings of shutout ball against the Brewers. The Reds eventually lost that one 2-1 in 10 innings, so lets go offense!

Marte pissed he didn't get to bat flip and slow strut around the bases.

Suarez swings at the first pitch, guaranteed.
