Recap: Reds pitching implodes

Related Topics: Alfredo Simón

I had a good ticket for tonight’s game. The weather was perfect. The Cardinals were in town. The Reds are playing about as well as can be expected right now. They had a chance to win the series.

I didn’t go because Alfredo Simon was pitching for the Reds.

And just like last night, the bullpen battle was a gigantic mismatch. The only difference was no Joey Votto ninth inning heroics to save the situation.

Worst Thing Ever It’s June 8. His ERA is 9.11. He is 35 years old. Yet, the Reds are still giving Alfredo Simon the ball every fifth day.
