We lost another good one. > Reds sent OF Peyton Burdick outright to Triple-A Louisville.

Ke'Bryan Hayes in my lineup: 49 games, .219 AVG, 2 SB. Ke'Bryan Hayes on my IL: 9 games, .303 AVG, 4 SB. How does he know?

Rich Najjar: "Oh, that Austin Gomber is finally having a great season despite calling Coors home. I'll snap him up while the getting is good and save my season." How's that working out after one Gomber start -- on the road no less

Do I send 1-2 rookie punch Paul Skenes and Jared Jones into a pair of starts at Coors this week? Oh, yes I do. "Fortis Fortuna Adiuvat"

Skenes left with 6-1 lead after 6. Bullpen blew win to lowly Giants. Waldron left with 4-2 lead after 5. Bullpen blew win to mediocre Reds. Sigh.

Skenes is apparently the first major league player named Paul to make his debut with a mustache but no beard since Paul Kilgus in 1987.

Maybe he'll get hurt next outing and I'll regret not making an outrageously lopsided trade with Mike when I had the chance. But Paul Skenes' first start for my team was mighty sweet. 6 IP, 11 K, 0 H, 1 BB (shouldda been called 3rd strike), 0 R, 1 W, struck out first 7 Cubs he faced, just stunning

And moving Lawrence to the bench, keeping Thompson in the lineup. . . . ugh.

Hey AJ, when you benched Tyrone Taylor, didn't you realize that... they know?

Josh, Hall is still developing. He's not a DL veteran like...Kris Bryant.
