Reds vs. Astros: going for the sweep

  Paulino has faced the Reds more than any other team in his career.

  Uh they currently have a one game lead. The race is going to be a tight one all season. You can't win every game, but you should try. Especially when you have the chance to beat up on a bad team

  Give credit where credit is due......Paulino was terrific today, gutsy and even had 2 hits. He was better than Leake today.

  You cannot tell me that he was better than Leake today...Leake didn't give up a run and besides a few walks pitched a pretty good game. Dusty pulled him so you really can't say that Paulino was better than Leake. The Reds had their chances to knock in a runner when they had an opportunity. They just didn't execute today. They will have to take advantage of every RISP as possible when facing the Caridnals. They'll be facing a tough rookie pitcher in Garcia. Should be a good game.

  I'd say he was better than Leake, considering Leake was pitching against a pretty poor offensive team (actually, the worst offensive team in MLB) and we have seen him pitch a lot better. Paulino was pitching against the best offensive team in the NL and shut them out. Thats saying a lot. I love Leake and he's a great pitcher, but I'm giving the edge to Paulino.

  If you think that lineup was the best offensive team in the NL you are insane.

  Look at the stats again. He wasn't lying.
• Rotinaj

  

  They are not the best offensive team with the lineup that they had for yesterdays game and there is absolutely no way you can disagree.

  Sitting Stubbs and Rolen and playing Nix and Janish shouldn't make your #1 offense automatically helpless.

  And also no Votto. I agree that they shouldnt of hit like shit with runners on.
