Reds vs Astros....Game 2

• Midstate01

  

  Volquez continues to throw too many pitches and can't locate any one pitch consistently. 4-0 already

  Come on Edinson...how long are we gonna keep saying "he'll pick it up, he's got the best stuff on the team" before we say he just isn't really that good anymore?
• Midstate01

  

  Struck out the side.....after 10 batters

  Volquez 1IP 44 Pitches 4 singles 3 walks, down 4-0
• mhs95_06

  EV with a 2011 first inning ERA of 31.5! Both games I believe he was 0-2 on the first hitter.

  Sad as it is to say, my Volquez hatefest continues tonight. Dude needs to be sent down as soon as cueto/Bailey gets back so he can get in a rhythm.
• charliehustle14

  He's just not very good anymore. I would say it's because he's off the juice, but he's still hitting 95.

  Does he have options left?
• Midstate01

  

  No way they'll send him down. They just won't dont it.
• mhs95_06

  The first real pressure on the offense since opening day, when they floundered with RISP until the 9th.

  I don't know, I'm just sick of him, Haha. I think hell do better with a few more outings, and well see if he calms down now, I'm just not a fan.

  Figueroa is so ugly
• Midstate01

  

  Fuck you pence. I hate that dude. Runs like a homosexual
  
  
  Comeon votto!!
• mhs95_06

  I think BP should have tried for 3rd. It wouldn't have been the first or 3rd out in the off chance they would have got him. Would have scored on Votto's grounder up the middle to at least get one out of the inning.

  Found a stream online, but it's a little delayed.
  
  BP stroked that ball.
• Midstate01

  

  I thought he did go. But I think he'd have been out easily.
• mhs95_06

  Maybe Phillips was conservative due to soreness from his unwarranted belly thud last night!
• SportsAndLady

  

  hindsight is 20/20 mhs...down 4 runs, you don't take risks on the base paths.
• Midstate01

  

  Take him out soon or this gAme is gonna get away quickly
• osu45804

  

  Wow nice start to the 2nd for Volquez...

  I've never believed in EV's ability to be a #1 starter, but I hope he proves me wrong at some point.
• Midstate01

  

  He doesn't have #5 stuff today
• charliehustle14

  I can't believe we traded JH for Volquez, smh.
• stroups

  

  Ummm...... that looked like a strikeout to me

  I said that when it happened, and I was hit w/ a bunch of "#1 starters are better than great outfielders" posts.
