In seven games since the Griffey trade, the Reds have won once. They wasted opportunities last weekend in Washington and didn't play their best baseball in two losses to the Milwaukee Brewers.

And that's exactly what the Reds got on Monday night at Great American Ball Park from right-hander Bronson Arroyo. Justice B.
