And they had 2.5 really good years of Latos for a few of those guys mentioned. Trading for prospects is hard.

I agree, but it was quick in and out those times for me. :lol2:

If they have bathrooms open to where you don't have to ask I find that hard to believe given how busy they are that someone is paying any attention to that in most cases.

Happens all the time at places like that and Panera for short business meetings. I've done it a few times myself at Panera and I know a few others that have as well. Often times I will get a little something, but I haven't a few times. I'd say most buy something, but it's not uncommon and my point is probably something no one would ever notice.

When I say open to the public I just mean out in the open as in you don't have to ask to use it. I can completely understand that in a retail store. Starbucks is basically a restaurant.

Is it typical to not have a restroom open to the public to where you don't have to ask to use it in a Starbucks? That seems odd to me for a place like that.

I want someone that is a little more forward thinking. Your CF and SS don't have to always hit 1-2 in the order. It's not that complicated to put together the best lineup possible to score runs. They have computers that do that for you now. Yes Price continued to bat Hamilton and Peraza at the top of the lineup.

Edit I misread part of the article...

Larkin already has a good relationship with a lot of the younger players.

I want them to conduct a full search and interview process and hire the best person who comes out of that. If it's Barry Larkin it would be kind of cool, but I don't want them to hire him just because he is Barry Larkin.

I knew this series would be a positive.

On the plus side they got good pitching this series.

Not even I can overcome this team right now. :irked:

At least you are getting gold glove defense from Hamilton. Peraza (.233/.246/.317) has no business batting in the top half of the order or even playing at this point. Barnhart should be batting 2nd while Suarez is out.

Joel Luckhaupt ‏ @jluckhaupt Reds 3B are 2 for 34 with 0 XBH, 0 RBI, 2 BB, and 13 K since Eugenio Suarez's injury.

He PH again last night.

He was well on his way to $100M+ contract.

I don’t wanna say I’m giving up on Reed yet, but man he’s making it hard.

What does he get if he doesn’t get that year?

Playing short 8th time this year.

When he has control like tonight he’s really good.

You’re welcome...

He saved the Reds buts in game 1 when Cueto got hurt and I believe it was on short rest. Wouldn't have even been in that position.

He was good for the Reds.

I'll give you the Cueto trade it hasn't worked out, but they have hit on some others. Trading for prospects is far from an exact science. Blandino should be getting those starts over Pennington if you aren't bringing up Senzel. These things usually have a way of working themselves out over the next few weeks. I'm all in favor of bringing up Senzel now.

To get paid.

I didn't mow. Now it will be wet for another 100 days.

I'm not sure where we come up with this stuff. Very well know he wants to job right now.

Reds 3B 2nd last in BA 3rd last in OBP 4th last in SLG 3rd last in hits And that is including what Suarez did. Take him out and I'd guess they are dead last since.
