Reds at Marlins (8/26 - 8/29)

[CincySportsFan]

Nice night for Disco.

 

It's been a good rebound from earlier in the month. He's put together 3 good ones to end August, after 3 bad ones to start it. I thought prior to these last 3, he was possibly on his way to the pen when Mahle got healthy. That's not happening now.

Aquino with yet another Home Run. I hope he is the real deal.

Reds up 2-1 after 4 1/2 Cindy going for the 4 game sweep of the Marlins.

PUT SENZEL IN THE LEADOFF SPOT AND LEAVE HIM ALONE!!!

Top of tenth and Reds have first two on base and Votto up. Do they bunt? Heck no, and Votto hits into a double play. Suarez follows with a ground out. Do the Reds think it is below Votto to ask him to bunt? I just can't tell you the last time Votto had a big hit.

The Reds don't bunt position players. Has nothing to do with it being "below Votto".

The bigger issue last night isn't Votto, it's the closer who picks up another L.

 

But, the Reds go 3-1 in the 4 game series.

But...but...but...he shouldn't have even been in the game at that time. It was only a tie ballgame.

OK, how about Votto with another chance for a big hit and he grounds into a double play? Is that on Votto?

How about it? You were right, he didn't come through, hence why I didn't say anything about it.

 

But him not bunting has nothing to do with it being below him. That hasn't been this team's approach all season.

Agree, 2-10 as a closer, that’s just unreal!! I’m about at the opinion of Iglesias that if he comes into a game that’s not a save situation he just really doesn’t give a crap!!
