Last year wasn't a good example but this team is typically pretty good at picking up relief arms at the deadline.

but it's not like every guy suddenly forgot every piece of advice he gave

Would be nice if Renfroe and Narvaez get a hit to complete the lineup. Hate for them to be left out.

Good to see Gott and Boxberger restore some order to the game.

Now let Williams and Hader get an inning in and call it a day. 
 

Because he hasn’t pitched in over a week I’d like to see Hader have a little cushion when he comes in. 

Note: If I raise something as a POSSIBILITY that does not mean that I EXPECT it to happen.

Is Hader available. Thought he has some back issue?

4 smoked drives for Yelich today. 
 

No comment beyond that.

Unless he goes on a major slump in May and June, Adames is almost assured of being an all-star this year with Lindor. Shortstop production way down in the NL thus far without Tatis.

I have mixed feelings about sitting Hader down when he hasn’t pitched in over a week. He’s close to (if not beyond) that point where a manager might be putting the ace reliever in just to get some work.

Meant to share this earlier, but the 2022 MLB average OPS is almost below the Yuni B mark...

I agree in general but if he's just returning from a minor back issue, no need to press him for no real reason, I think.

People would love Yuni nowadays, that .261 career batting average is like 30 points over MLB average now.

Imagine being one of the two teams the Reds have actually beaten this year, the Braves (x2) and Cardinals.

Yelich is absolutely destroying the ball right now. 

This makes me SO HAPPY! I was working & unable to watch most of the game … but I kept checking the box score & was thrilled to see he continues to make progress 

If he & Adames remain hot … with Urius back … & Tellez mashing - we aren’t so bad offensively! 

I hope Cain can pick it up & I believe Taylor will hit as he gets more at bats … pretty good all around results after 26 games

The concern would be that his next outing comes with a one run lead and he’s wild because of lack of work. 
 

I think something like that happened last year when the Brewers had that stretch in June where they piled up runs against the Rockies, Pirates, and Cubs and Hader didn’t see much action. He followed that up with his worst week of the season against the Mets and Reds.
