Good job starting May thread. Winning Mets series would be a good start. A split we could live with. Losing the 4 game series would mean an 0-2 start to May, don't need that. GO REDS IN NY.
I hope they don't pitch Iglesias today. I really hated seeing him come into game yesterday after his great 2 innings the night before. Don't blow his arm out. Reds use to have racist idea that Latins have rubber arms, which came from Pedro Bourbon on 1970's. No, they are flesh and blood, not rubber. Reds ruined a lot of Latin pitchers that way. They would start Mario Soto and then pitch him in relief next nights. Marty & Joe would complain that Soto looks so good 4 or 5 nights in a row but then 6 games in a row has a bad game. Reds ruined a good pitcher in Soto and other Latin pitchers. I don't think the Reds are that stupid anymore. I don't hear Reds announcers talking about Latin Rubber Arms as much. Iglesias needs a game off today on May 1st and they better give him one. Rest him today so they can have him on Thursday. Otherwise he isn't going to be as good on the mound if they pitch him every game, and they will injure him.
I hope Reds win today and closer Iglesias gets a needed game off. The 2 innings of work Monday took something off his game Tuesday. If he pitched Sunday, that's even worse. He needs today off. You can't pitch him 162 games a year. If they pitch him 2 or 3 innings in future, he needs the next game off. Don't ruin our Ace Closer. We have a good bullpen if they mix them up and don't blow their arms off halfway through season. Somebody else has to get a few save situations besides Iglesias now and then. Reds Star Chapman pitched Cubs into game 7 of World Series, but he should have never been in game 7 after all that pitching . Still, I can see the thinking of game 7 of World Series with long time to rest after. So Chapman was not himself game 7, but Cubs came back and won, and they would not have been in game 7 without great season and World Series by Chapman. Todays Mets game is not Game 7 of World Series, and Iglesias needs a game off. You could see that last night on the mound. He had pitched too many innings Monday Night.
