Voice of Reason Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Reds had bases loaded and no outs and scored one run. On a bases loaded walk to DuVall. Hard to score when the batters are Barnhart, Irvin and Pennington. Not quite murders row. Ummm ... Barnhart and Pennington are two of the top hitters on the team so far this season. In fact, on the active roster, they have the top two batting averages on the Reds. Ervin only has 8 at bats so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barnhart will drive in about 40 hitting eighth, Pennington is a journey man or a role player and Irvin is a minor leaguer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sumoroyal Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Reds find a new way to lose as they give up a HR to a .188 hitter. Peraza strikes out to lead off the ninth on a pitch that bounced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColonelCrazy Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 I doubt he gets another start. Just isn’t working. It's time to replace Reed with Amir Garrett. If you want a lefty out of the pen, give Reed a whirl. I like Reed and am not ready to give up on him entirely, but Amir deserves the rotation spot.

UKMustangFan Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 How many starts is Price going to give to Pennington at 3B before letting Blandino have a shot? Dude is such a horrific manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AverageJoesGym Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 How many starts is Price going to give to Pennington at 3B before letting Blandino have a shot? Dude is such a horrific manager. I can seehim giving Blandino yesterday to get settled in and go over scouting reports but he should absolutely play everyday now. I'm intrigued with Blandino's OBP potential. Hopefully he can stick in either Pennington or Gosselin's role when Suarez returns. Although he doesn't need to see any extended time at shortstop.

OlDog75 Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 In 52 2/3 innings as a starter Reed has now allowed 16 home runs. I'm not a math guy but is that about a home run every 3 innings? YEESH! Maybe it's the goggles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UKMustangFan Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 C. Trent Rosecrans Verified account @ctrent From what I've been told, expect Nick Senzel to be starting at 3B tonight for Louisvile.

HammerTime Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Just FYI the 13th is the date they can bring him up without losing a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plantmanky Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 They are going to rush him up here too early, just like they did with Homer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UKMustangFan Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Just FYI the 13th is the date they can bring him up without losing a year. Yep. I expect sometime over the weekend or next week. He's mashed at every stop in the minors. Kid is seemingly ready for his shot in the majors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
