He just needed to face the Astros.


Well, I agree Guardado didn't even need to work up a sweat to get the Astros hitters out. But, coming into the game, he had a 1.75 ERA and .135 BAA in 6+ innings with the Reds. The Reds may have found a real closer. It's possible the Reds will displace the Astros because they hired a new GM who simply made better moves, than Pupura, to improve his club.
