August 4, 201412 yr Reds start what's in effect a 4 games series against the Indians tonight. First two games in Cleveland, the final two being in GABP. Simon vs. Kluber tonight. Cueto vs. Tomlin tomorrow Latos vs. Salazar Wednesday Bailey vs. House Thursday
August 4, 201412 yr I had a super busy weekend and didn't watch any of the Reds games. Guess I can't watch these first two either. Do what I gotta do for the team.
August 4, 201412 yr Are we ready to resume wildcard discussions? The recent mini-surge might keep (make ??) the Reds interesting at least for another couple of weeks. 4.5 games back in the division, 3.5 in the wild card.
August 4, 201412 yr Are we ready to resume wildcard discussions? Yes, I think there's a real possibility that there could be 2 wildcard teams from the AFC North.
August 4, 201412 yr Any time frame on when BP might be back? About a week or so ago, I heard that he was "way ahead of schedule." He was out on the field taking ground balls. The only thing he can't do is grab a bat / swing.
August 4, 201412 yr Unfortunately though the Reds are as boring as dirt to watch, all they need to muster on a consistent basis is 3-4 runs a game to win games because their starting pitching is so overwhelmingly good. Though not a fan at all of this team I think pitching will carry them into a wild card. It's obvious that they don't need Votto to win because he has mostly been MIA for, is it 2 or 3 years now?, I forget, because of injuries or mental. Bruce mostly shows up a couple of months a year, not even that this year and they win. So as much as I want them to fall flat on their face so they will rebuild the offense this year or next so I will enjoy watching them again, it's not happening. I predict 3 of 4 from the Tribe and a sweep of the horrible Marlins and that could vault them into as hard as it is to believe maybe first place
August 4, 201412 yr Any time frame on when BP might be back? About a week or so ago, I heard that he was "way ahead of schedule." He was out on the field taking ground balls. The only thing he can't do is grab a bat / swing. I just read that he's "roughly three weeks away".
August 4, 201412 yr About a week or so ago, I heard that he was "way ahead of schedule." He was out on the field taking ground balls. The only thing he can't do is grab a bat / swing. So he fits in with most of our middle infielders then right? Just kidding.
August 4, 201412 yr Author I just read that he's "roughly three weeks away". I know they said the anticipated date was end of August, however BP said he has a specific date in mind, but wouldn't say what it was. Just that it was sooner than anyone expected. My guess....August 18th, in St. Louis.
