Kershaw is tough to beat. Reds should be able to get the win tomorrow.

I already posted this but thought I should post it again due to the extreme truth to it.

Random fun facts:

In this series Corbin (24 years old) will be the oldest pitcher we send to the mound (Delgado 23, Skaggs 22). Also in spring training all 3 of those pitchers were battling to be the 5th starter in the rotation (Corbin won).

Randall Delgado is now 3-3 with a 2.85 ERA on the year. In games he starts however he has a 2.61 ERA (He gave up 2 in his first appearance of the year, as a reliever in STL).

Prado stats in his last 26 games: .346 BA, 35 for 101, 4 HRs, 17 RBIs, 11 Rs, 10 BBs, 6 Ks
Prado stats in his last 7 games: .481 BA, 13 for 27, 1 HR, 7 RBIs, 5 Rs, 4 BBs, 0 Ks
Prado is now batting .266 on the year after having spent most of the year at .240ish and below.

Justin Upton's first 21 games: .316, 11 HRs, 16 RBIs, 23 Ks
Justin Upton's last 74 games: .229, 5 HRs, 31 RBIs, 81 Ks
Justin Upton is now batting .249 on the year.

This game was only the second time all year the DBacks scored 6+ runs without getting a Goldschmidt hit. The first time it happened was also against the Padres on May 4th (8 runs scored).

Prado only has 38 strikeouts all season against 30 walks! I will take that ratio any day! Prado is starting to match and supersede many of uptons' stats! Just imagine jup did not have a hot start start to the season or if prado was not terrible for the first 60-70 games! This trade is starting to look more one sided everyday! We still haven't even seen the full potential of spruill or the other kid in single a!

Most of us knew that Upton would cool off, we tried to warn the Braves fans. As of right now: Prado, Delgado, Spruill, Ahmed>>Upton and Johnson.

Lol, Upton just grounded into an inning ending double play with the bases loaded.

He's having a rough time for 3/4 of the year right now. I don't miss those streaks at all.
