Mike Stanton And Déjà Vu – Bullpen Blows Another Late Lead

Wait – haven’t I seen this before?  Mike Stanton gave up three runs yet again in only his fourth appearance, blowing a late comeback by the Reds.  Narron has consistently gone the ‘pen and brought in pitchers in different situations – playing the averages.  It has consistently blown up in his face too – it’s hard to figure out who is going to not execute in this bullpen.  Sometimes they play well, other times – well, look at last night’s game to get an idea.  It’s difficult to feel very confident with any late lead with this current Reds ‘pen.

One nice development in this game was Ken Griffey Jr.’s emergence as the Griffey of his youth.  Grif hit a 3-run homer and actually stole a base (which later led to him scoring a run). 

Josh Hamilton did indeed win the NL rookie of the month award.  It would be pretty hard to argue against him winning it.  He’s a Cinderella story for sure.  Let’s hope the happy endings continue for Josh (and I mean that in the strictest, most Southern Baptist sense.)
