If it feels like you're listening to a broken record at this point, I apologize. What's unforgivable, however, was Terry Francona's decision earlier this week not to start Hunter Greene on Tuesday for the Cincinnati Reds' series opener against the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Many different fans and pundits have weighed in on Francona's harebrained decision to send Brady Singer to the hill on Tuesday instead of Greene. To be clear, this has absolutely nothing to do with Singer's performance this season. Singer's been a fine addition to the Reds' rotation this season.
But while Singer is a fine middle-of-the-rotation starter, Greene is the Reds' best pitcher.
