July 11, 201313 yr Wow, that's clever. So now that the Reds are struggling it's the fault of division they are in? Some of you Reds fans crack me up because before the season started there was talk about how great this team was but now that other teams have stepped and the Reds are struggling it's someone else's fault. Braves are 21-14 against the NL East, 10-6 against the Central. I don't disagree that the NL. East is a weaker division this year but to act like it's a very bad division is silly. Phillies and Nationals are quality teams. Not my fault that the Braves take care of business and the Reds cannot. The Nationals are a good team that has underachieved up to this point. The Phillies are NOT a quality team. They are 3 games under .500 and have a -48 run differential. They are medicore at best. The Braves are the only team in the entire division with a positive run differential. The NL East is a bad division this year.

July 11, 201313 yr Any chance Leake gets some innings on SUN if Cingrani needs some help? If not, does he get 1st game after the break? Would like to keep him on the current roll.
July 11, 201313 yr Are Braves fans getting defensive about their division? Argue something that makes sense, focus on your team being good, because your division sucks. Of course the Reds are jealous of that crap division.

Of course the Reds are jealous of that crap division. Do you really want to discuss crap divisions? Reds couldn't win the division a few years back and they had the Astros, Cubs, Brewers, and Pirates. They all sucked and the Reds still couldn't take advantage.
July 11, 201313 yr The Braves and Braves fans make me chuckle. What have they won exactly? In my lifetime they've won 1 world series. They went for nearly a decade with the most dominant pitching staff in baseball and one that would rank somewhere all-time, yet only one big trophy. Dominated TV via TBS, but underachieved overall. So, get off me little Brave gnat. I laugh at your bravado and chuckle at thy resume'.

Forgive me your highness but since 1990 how many have the Reds won, or at least how many World Series have they been too? Or how about how many division titles, playoff appearances? Braves may have underachieved during that stretch but they were and still are better than the Reds.
