Craig Kimbrel and the Reds’ Unlikeliest Comeback
Win probability said the Reds had a 4.3 percent chance of winning when Devin Mesoraco stepped to the plate against Craig Kimbrel. There were two outs and nobody on base. Win probability obviously didn’t know Craig Kimbrel was pitching.
According to Tom Tango’s run frequency calculator, given Kimbrel’s career .154/.240/.208 line against, a run is expected to score off Kimbrel...

His wasn’t the walk-off homer, but Mesoraco was clearly the hero of this game.It was looking like it was going to be another loss at the hands of a quiet offense last night, but at literally the last minute, they pulled it out to win and even the series with the Braves.

Catch the Future
One year ago multiple players stepped up with surprising performances to help the Reds win 97 games. One disappointment was rookie catcher Devin Mesoraco. He’s still figures prominently into the Reds future plans and the way he’s hitting in spring training gives reason to think that he’s ready to leave his 2012 campaign in the rear view mirror.
2013 X-Factor: Cincinnati Reds
You know the usual suspects on the Reds: Votto, Chapman, Phillips, Latos, Bruce, Choo, and so on and so forth. None of them are really going to be an x-factor this year, because everyone is counting on them to be a huge part of the team. So when looking for someone a bit under the radar to make an impact on such a star-studded team, you've got to think about more than the usual...

The Reds sign Mark Prior and comparing Devin Mesoraco to Ryan Hanigan
Boy, wouldn’t this news have been great 10 years ago: Mark Prior is in camp with the Reds. As reported by John Fay, he apparently called Dusty and asked for a chance and it was granted to him. Last season he pitched with the Red Sox AAA team and posted a 3.96 ERA in 25 innings. That came with 23 walks and 38 strikeouts though. Apparently there is still some stuff there by checking...
Sports Illustrated writer predicts Devin Mesoraco to go 'boom' this season
It wasn't too long ago when catcher Devin Mesoraco was heralded as the undisputed top prospect in Cincinnati's system. In fact, it was less than one year ago. Now, speedster Billy Hamilton holds that title after swiping more bases in 2012 than you can shake a stick at (155 to be exact).
Expectations were high for Mesoraco entering his rookie season. Many even dubbed him...

GOODYEAR, Ariz. When Devin Mesoraco sorts through a pile of personal DVDs, hell throw away any showing him dancing with a lamp shade on his head, any showing him as a toddler in diapers and any showing him batting in a major-league game last season.
For the 24-year-old Cincinnati Reds catchers, it was a most forgettable year .212 over 54 games and 165 at-bats. And extremely few...
