Game Thread #7: Reds (2-3) at Brewers (2-4)
Cincinnati Reds at Milwaukee Brewers, Apr 13, 2009 7:05 PM CDT
Ok, that's enough about Suppan. Cheer up, everyone, it's a Yovani-day!
Still looking for their first series win of the season, the Brewers open up a three game set tonight with the Reds, who split two games with the Pirates over the weekend.
For the Reds, Edinson Volquez will take the mound. He got off to a rough start in 2009, allowing six runs in 4.1 innings last time out. He was excellent in 2009, though, posting a 17-6 record with a 3.21 ERA in 196 innings. That performance was enough to earn him a fourth place finish in the voting for NL Rookie of the Year even though he wasn't eligible to win the award. Volquez, though, struggled with Jason Kendall last season: Kendall only had 34 extra base hits and two home runs all year, but two of those extra base hits, including one home run, were hit in seven at bats against Volquez.
Across the diamond, Yovani Gallardo is getting ready for his second start. He has one win and one home run in 2009, singlehandedly powering the Brewers to victory last Wednesday. In 2008 he made one start against the Reds and received a no decision, allowing a run on four hits in seven innings. Only three current Red position players have ever faced him (Edwin Encarnacion, Brandon Phillips and Joey Votto), and they're a combined 2-for-15. And, of course, he's tied for second on the Brewers in home runs.
Monday's Game Thread is now open.

The real question of the night
Has someone stopped by Ryan Braun’s locker and let him know that the season has started? Tonight would be a perfect time to start taking that OPS+ of 60 northward.

Maybe we should cut him and eat the rest of his contract. :)

best comment about suppan yesterday
my dad sent me a text message today: “I was waiting for coach pitch to start.”
For those of you who aren’t familiar, many little league rules have a coach come in to pitch after 3 consecutive walks…
Whenever we need a reliever in the 4th or 5th innings
There’s a part of me that really hopes Bill Castro will finish it off
Big Unit Fail
I had him starting for my fantasy team today. Nothing like a 17-something ERA and a 3.0 WHIP to start the week off right…
He'd never lost in Dodger stadium before
I thought I’d be golden

kuroda is on the dl now for me
daisuke blew up last week
and derek lowe’s stellar game got rained out.
and to put more sand in the wound, i placed second last week in terms of points, but lost my match up by more than 200 points.
Small margin of error
I won my matchup last week based on steals last night by Russell Branyan and Brian McCann
I couldn't believe my ears (listening to the game on radio)
It was a straight steal too
In my keeper league
I had A-Rod and Webb, and one week in they are both on the DL…awesome
