Clemens wasn't on the 2003 team (the only year of Lidge-Dotel-Wagner). He came the year after in 2004...Wagner was already traded (exiled) to Philly.
When Springer plays this team walks quite a bit as well. Plus we have an extremely low BABIP of .265, so we are due for some hits to start falling in, we had a number of hard outs yesterday.
Yeah, a base running error by San Fran and nice play by Villar, men on first and third to close it out. Nothing to worry about there, total control.
I like Gregorson but adding another piece to the back of the bullpen would make me feel more comfortable. A hard thrower that can miss bats. If the Reds continue to be mediocre for another month do they look to trade start trading pieces? Chapman?
Edit: Look to start trading pieces. Using McCullers and/or Appel out of the bullpen is another option.
