Mike Leake turned in another miserable performance against the Nationals on Friday, allowing six runs on seven hits in just three innings of work. Leake struck out three and walked two in the short effort. This may be the nail in the coffin, as the Reds may decide they are better off looking for an alternative option for the rotation. Leake falls to 0-5 with the loss and his ERA now sits at 7.11. Should he somehow stick around to make his next start, he'll face the Mets in New York on Wednesday.
