I'm glad I fell asleep on that one and didn't watch Reds blow a 7 run lead. I see Cardinals gave up earned runs. How did Reds give up 4 unearned runs as box score shows ?
As for Mahle, I'm thinking spot starter since he is good for only 5 innings most of time. Other teams doing it. Have a guy pitch first 2 innings. Bring in Mahle in 3rd. Then to bullpen in 8th & 9th.
Good pitching match-up Saturday. Try to split series. At least don't get swept. Damage Control.
HOW ABOUT THE NEW CATCHER. If he can hit like that more often, forget about these other Reds catchers.
