    Please tell me it wasn't because of injury. I live in Dallas so I do not get to see the games. I saw that Munro relieved him... I figured that if he didn't reinjure himself, it was just a strategic ploy by Jimmy Williams to have the Reds adjust their lineup for a lefty, then have a righty (Munro) relieve him and kind of throw them off a little bit. We really need Hernandez for the stretch run so I am hoping this is the case.

    I'm glad to hear that's the reason. With a starting rotation of Oswalt/Miller/Munro/Hernandez , that's one of the best in the NL, assuming all of these guys stay healthy.

    Pitching him after a several hour rain delay, would be suicide to his arm. Seeing how he just got off the DL...
