Depending on who you ask, the Cincinnati Reds probably gave up too much young talent in a deal for pitcher Mat Latos this offseason, but when Walt Jocketty wants a guy, he gets that guy, damn it. Unfortunately, Latos isn’t off to a hot start this season (0-2, 8.22 ERA) but in fairness he had to pitch against the St. Louis Cardinals last night and they pretty much own the 24-year old in his brief career in the majors. The Cards are now 3-1 against Latos since his rookie season, and his ERA in that span has too many digits for me to process without my Texas Instruments graphing calculator.
But who needs stats when criticizing a guy is just plain easier? At least that’s how some Reds fans looked at his awful game last night (5.2 innings, 8 ER) and they took it out on the person who deserved it most – Dallas Latos, Mat’s wife.
That was Dallas’ last Tweet of the night, and she’s probably not going to delete her Twitter because she seems to like attention – as evidenced by her blog and recent appearance on CBS Sports. But she’s going to have to get used to putting up with a-holes and trolls moving ahead, especially if her hubby keeps tossing meatballs. Here are the two dipsh*ts she dealt with last night…
But don’t think that Dallas needs her followers coming to her rescue, because she’s got sh*t under control.
I really hope she doesn’t delete her Twitter, but then, I don’t think this girl really wants to give up any notoriety…
