Astros 3, Reds 1
Eric Millon couldn't hold the lead for an inning. He gave up three in the first. One was unearned as result of Alex Gonzalez's error. But Gonzalez then bailed Mitlon out with a great stop to start a 6-4-3 double play.
Milton has allowed at least one run in the first inning each of his last four starts, nine runs overall.

Tonight Livingston went 7 and 2/3 for louisville. 2 runs. 8 hits. 7 were singles. if you take away his first start where he allowed 4 runs in 5 plus. his era is 2.05. still less than 3 with that start figured in.
this is a guy who outpitched everyone on the team in florida.... everyone. he has walked 3 guys in 30.2 innings.
bailey only goes 5 or 5 plus in every start so it is obvious that they do not think he is ready.
livingston and dumatrait are ready. its time to give them the ball. milwaukee is a good team.
Let's not worry about Milton until the bullpen is fixed. Unbelievable. Is it possible the bullpen got worse than it was last year?
This team will never win with this awful bullpen. I'm sick of their terrible job.
Eric Milton should either increase his warm up time or warm up with a hitter standing in the box. I preferred the latter because it helps your concentration which is apparently what is absent.
