Bell looks the fool tonight.  Raley can't get a batter out and is gone.   2 on and 2 out and the game at 9-5.  IN comes Sims

The Reds arenâ€t gonna hit like this every night obviously but they really have it all there to be a good hitting team.

Lmao.  Of course.  What inning?  Reminiscent of that 8-0 game they blew last year.  I think it was to Milwaukee

Reed is another big dummy

Dick Williams did very little to help this pen in the off season.  What happened to Kuhnel?  Not used.  This team has immense talent EXCEPT for the pen.

12-7 Reds.

Agreed. Kuhnel is at Prasco, I believe.

Reds to place Wade Miley on the injured list, activate DeSclafani


The Cincinnati Reds have a starting pitcher heading to the injured list, but they will replace him with one returning from the injured list. While there's still a game scheduled for Thursday night, the forecasts suggests there's almost no way that the game is going to be played. Perhaps that is why the Reds will be waiting until tomorrow to officially make the roster move of placing left-handed pitcher Wade Miley on the injured list with a groin injury. Manager David Bell said today during his daily press conference with the local media that the move would happen on Friday and that right-handed starter Anthony DeSclafani would take his place on the roster.
Anthony DeSclafani began the year on the injured list, but was only expected to miss one start and that appears to be the case. He's the probable starter for Saturday in Detroit, with Tyler Mahle set to pitch against the Tigers on Sunday.
Wade Miley only had one start this season and it didn't go as planned. On Monday night the newest addition to the Reds rotation allowed five earned runs (and was charged with an unearned run, too) in just 1.2 innings of work while walking two batters and hitting two others. He threw 57 pitches before being pulled from the game and replaced by reliever Tejay Antone.
[b]Tyler Stephenson to join the Reds on the road[/b]
With the 2020 season being what it is, Major League Baseball is allowing up to three players from the taxi squad to travel with the team on the road in case there is a need to add players due to an injury. Catcher Tyler Stephenson, who went 2-2 with a walk and a home run in his Major League debut on Monday, but was optioned to the Prasco Park roster on Wednesday, will be a part of the taxi squad that hits the road when Cincinnati heads to Detroit on Friday.

I recall mentioning something about Bell not being the guy.

I recall mentioning something about Bell not being the guy.

To this POINT I'm not really impressed with his handling of the pen.   And that is really the difference in these guys in winning and losing.   BUT, I'd also mention some of the parts in that pen are a tad bit overrated like Lorenzen.   There are some really good pitchers there as well.  Antone is looking like a very good one, so is Strop.  Garrett is an All Star.  I like Mahle, too.   At the end we'll evaluate.   He did pretty good last year with a club that was solid in pitching but weak in hitting.  They have great rotation and great hitters so it's up to Williams to find 2 parts to make that pen strong and it's up to Bell to move some of them around like Iglesias and Lorenzen who are sackless in a tight game.   That is where I stand.
