    Ordinarily Id say this is the game. But I think he has been human this year, right?
    Damn near blew a 3-run lead last night...definitely mortal, like Chapman to an extent.

    Thanks. I heard them talking about him on MLB Tonight, but I was only listening so I didnt see any numbers.

    Hes batting below .200 and on base is like .250.

    At some point, IMO, the Reds won't have a choice to bring Hamilton up.

    The problem is, if you follow him in AAA (both offensively and defensively), he's clearly not even close to producing in the majors.

    Sarcasm??? Cause Chapman is not mortal lol. He is a freak. I have been tuning into these Reds games late to see him pitch actually. So fun to watch.

    Believe me, you won't find a bigger Chapman fan than me.

    However, his K ratio is down, his WHIP is up and he just came off an outing where he faced 7 batters, 6 of them reached, allowed 3 runs and had to be yanked.

    To his extent, this isn't always his fault, but his pitch selection has been bad too. He allowed that solo HR to Ruggiano to lose that game vs Miami 2-1. Ruggiano can ONLY hit a FB...yet he threw him 6 straight FB's from 96-99 MPH. I don't care how hard you throw, give a dead red hitter 6 straight, he's going to burn you.

    Hopefully never...
  • Azubuike24
    1 more K and that's 11...LOL.
  • wildcats20
    Have to PH for the Corkster right?
  • Azubuike24
    Hanahan, Mesoraco, Robinson...I hope.
  • Azubuike24
    Knowing Dusty, it will be Hanahan, Robinson and Izturis...hoping for all infield hits.

    Izturis already hit.

    Impossible
  • wildcats20
    So he lets Corky hit. Way to play for the win Dusty.
  • Azubuike24
    Yeah, I see that now.

    Even worse...Corky hitting...Hanahan doesn't swing.

    We suck. And with all these unjuries, our bench is pitiful
  • Azubuike24
    Why would you hit Miller but then use Mesoraco?

    Baffling.
  • wildcats20
    Lol and now Meso bats.
