Cano gets it done....is he one of the guys we got for Mancini last year?

Lopez 

[OsFanSinceThe80s]

Amazing. Cano has basically come out of nowhere the last week and is now the go to setup guy to pitch the eighth inning setting up Bautista to close out the game in the ninth.

[ArtVanDelay]

Just give Cano the Cy Young already

[Alasdaire]

Cano has real mustard on his stuff. Bullpen arms seemingly come out of nowhere, so I'm here for it even if short lived.

[Gurgi]

Mountcastle always looks odd to me when he arches his back.  Its a funny look.  Not as weird as Kevin Youkalis was but still odd.

[oriolediehard]

Whats wrong with Cionel Perez?

[NCRaven]

Gibson gets Cy Young.  Cano comes in second to Bautista for Fireman award.

Does Perez have options? If so might need to use one soon..

That looks like a no.

Cincinnati Reds pitcher Cionel Pérez claimed off waivers by Baltimore Orioles

Quote

In eight months, left-handed reliever Cionel Pérez went from the Cincinnati Reds' Opening Day roster to out of the organization. 

Pérez was claimed off waivers by the Baltimore Orioles on Wednesday. He is out of minor-league options, so he will be subject to waivers if he's not kept on a team's active 26-man roster next year.

Nats fans are such a wine and cheese crowd. Hardly even attempt to drown out the let's go O's chants. Can't believe this team won a WS.

[Roy Firestone]

I'm telling you now...Im NOT crazy about Felix coming on in the ninth....hes laboring...

Pitching around feared slugger Frazier to get to Henderson. 

[WillyM]

Henderson!  With the  RBI single.

[Mooreisbetter27]

Woooo Gunnar!

[dtk9119]

Gunnar with much needed insurance 

[Gurgi]

Really enjoy seeing Gunnar get a hit.  He is my favorite right now.  Lots of emotional energy wrapped up in seeing that kid do great.
