Reds get a well earned day off today, then play 2 games against Cleveland, and get another day off.
It's a shame that we ended on an absolute dud by Frankie Montas. Spiers was incredible in relief though. Hopefully, this gives Spiers the inside track to be our new 5th starter with Ashcraft down in Louisville.
We won't need a 5th starter until June 17th (next Monday) because of the scheduled days off, so that should give them ample time to come up with a solution. I kind of hope they move Montas from Sunday to Monday and have Spiers start the 3rd Brewers game. Gives Montas a little bit more time to fix whatever is going on with him and allows Spiers to start a regular starter schedule.
We're only 2 games under .500 at this point. It would be incredible if we could just take both games against the Guardians, but they're really good. If we can split that series and win the Brewers series, we'd start next week only 1 game under .500. And then we'd have a relatively soft schedule of Pittsburgh, Boston, Pittsburgh, St. Louis to close out June.
