Reds' Alfredo Simon: Struggles in no decision

Simon only lasted four innings Saturday against Milwaukee, allowing three runs (two earned) on three hits and two walks while fanning only one. He was ejected in the fifth inning for hitting opposing starter Chase Anderson with a pitch.

Analysis:

Simon's ERA ballooned to 9.60, and he had plenty of problems to find the strike zone after throwing only 32 of his 63 pitches for strikes. The 35-year-old veteran's next start will come Thursday against Colorado, although at this point it's not safe to trust him in any format considering his recent struggles.
