- 13IP this year, 9 IP vs righties and they are batting .077 vs him.

Arroyo vs the Pirates, and some notes:
- Over the past 3 years, Arroyo is 5-1 vs the Pirates with a 1.93 ERA.
- Out of the top 6 players in terms of plate appearances vs Arroyo, the best one is Ronny Cedeno, who is batting .217.
- Three current Pirates bat over .300 vs Arroyo, and they are 2-6, 1-3, and 1-3. Not much you can tell from those #s, the only players with a examinable sample size have done awful vs Arroyo.
- Arroyo hasn't given up a run while a lefty was batting this season, and the Pirates lefties are their best run creators, Neil Walker and Lyle Overbay.
Francisco Cordero isn't too good vs the current Pirates, who have a .313 avg (14-44). Check it out for yourself here.
Other things going on in the world:
-It's going to rain in Cincinnati this weekend, a lot.
-Janish gets a cool piece on him from CBS Sports. His new nickname is "Soft J".
-Have you heard of Trackman for golf? They are coming for baseball as well...stuff like this amazes me. Some of you may not like the physics and big numbers behind baseball, but I love it so I'll keep posting it.
-Derrick Williams has declared for the NBA draft, I think he goes #1 over Kyrie Irving.
-Hot Wheels in real life? No way.
-Jeff Ruby hosted a roast with local celebrities, check out some of the quotes here. Hilarious stuff from guys like Brennaman, Marvin Lewis, and Brian Kelly.
-Dustin Mosely of the Padres is 0-3 with a 1.82 ERA. He has gotten 0 runs of support this season. Sounds kind of like Aaron Harang for the Reds the last few years, except much worse.
-This is one tough dude, I guess that's why he is playing hockey. Make sure you read the poll and vote.
Thanks for reading, and remember I will now be tweeting little stat tidbits (i.e. This dude bats .095 in a 0-1 count, or this reliever has given up 3 home runs to this guy..) during games so be sure to follow me at @EricLilly7
