The lackluster effort against scrubs like the Cubs, Brewers, and Mets over the final month is alarming.

 

Why they do it every year, when their good or bad.

Don't think that's even close to accurate.

I never want to hear about how great Votto is defensively again. He's awful. There has got to be something wrong with him. He's made so many mental errors this year, he's taking a ton of called 3rd strikes, he's taking pitches he used to drive and hitting weak grounders to 1st and 2nd.

 

Either something's wrong with him, or he's one of those guys that just completely mailed it in after cashing in.

 

Wait what? hello is this thing on? Hasnt someone been saying this all year? Hello?

While the Reds are choking, the Cardinals have a 3-1 lead over the Nationals and the Pirates have them loaded down 1-0 in the 3rd in Chicago.

Wasnt too long ago they were in a wild card race and lost three straight to the Brewers in Milwaukee and season was over.

Try 14 years ago....

Pirates coming through in the clutch, have tied it up at 1.

Bloop and a blast.

Pathetic offensively over the last few games.

This team is going nowhere fast.

 

The season is now reduced to a crapshoot. That's what a one game "playoff" is in baseball - a total crapshoot.

So we will have to sweep the Pirates.

Just timing up the hitting streak for the playoffs. Yeah. That's it...

This team is going nowhere fast.

 

No effort. They clinched a postseason berth Monday night, and while they said the right things ("We aren't satisfied with a WC"), they came out flat and with no energy or fire yesterday or today. Actions speak louder than words.

 

Just an embarrassing 3 days at GABP.

Loved BP's effort on the ground out in the 9th too...Exactly what you like to see out of one of your veteran "leaders".

Have tickets to Sunday's game. Have a feeling the only thing we'll be "celebrating" is the fact that the little one will get to run the bases after the game is over.
