2017 Reds Season Day by Day Fan Feedback

[CJD]

Gennett was so good last night we completely brushed over Adleman's amazing start!

7 IP, 3 H, 1 ER, 1 R, 2 BB, 7 SO, 1 HR

In his last 3 starts, his stat line is:

21 IP, 10 H, 4 ER, 4 R, 6 BB, 16 SO, 2 HR for an ERA of 1.71 and a WHIP of 0.76 and a BAA of .149

That is exactly what we need and that's ace level pitching.

We are hoping to get Finnegan, Bailey and Disco back within a month or two (or so I've heard) and Adleman seems to have found himself a great home in the rotation.

He'll never be mistaken for Clayton Kershaw but a 4.00 ERA pitcher who can pitch past the 6th inning is an extraordinarily valuable player in today's MLB. And if that is what he truly is, we got ourselves a keeper!

And all this after a performance on Monday from Wojciechowski of 6 IP 8 H 2 ER 2 R 2 BB 6 SO 0 HR ball.

Man, if we can keep this pitching staff on task, we could end up having a playoff year.

We are, after all, only 3 games out of the division lead!

We wouldn't beat whoever we were matched up against most likely but, who knows, once we get some starting pitchers back, we could go on a serious tear.
