@EvilJoeyVotto I'm getting a little pissed that I have to watch guys that can't hit day after day when this guy is crushing and needs called up yesterday
Looking ahead to the weekend, it looks like the Guardians are having a 10-year reunion for their AL championship team this weekend when the Reds and Terry Francona are in town.
The underlying metrics show that Ke'Bryan Hayes is reaching 95 mph of exit velocity at a decent rate. But he has only reached 105 mph off the bat three times this season, which is the second-fewest among the Reds’ regulars. He has four XBH this year.

During spring training, Terry Francona said about Ke'Bryan Hayes: “We know the type of defender he is. It’s our responsibility to get a lineup where whatever he hits, we can live with it because the defense is so good.”
What do the Reds do now?

Brady Singer on the comebacker that hit him in the outside of the foot (but stayed away from the ankle and bone of the foot): “I didn’t want to (mess) up the bullpen. I tried the best I could with what I had.”
“I’d like to see what tomorrow brings. I’ll do what I can to make my next start.”
Terry Francona on Singer: “He takes it very seriously, being reliable, accountable and taking the ball.”
