I don't agree on the Reds as a bad team, but good info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t really think they are either but something is just missing in them, just can’t put it together enough to be a consistent winning team!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack of all Trades Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 David Bell should be up for manager of the year. There is nobody who can give more games away in a season than this guy. Down 1-0 entering ninth and Antone and Fulmer are warmed up. Who do you bring in? Consider you pitched Sims in 5th to prevent game from getting out of hand. Time for him to go.

Is that the same the same Fulmer that used to Coach Tennessee football?? Nah, couldn’t be, that Fulmer would be a better pitcher than this guy!!!

Usually within 3 days of Opening Day the manager attacks begin. I am thinking maybe Davey Johnson is the last manager that the fans didn't whine about as an idiot. That being said, I agree with this comment about Bell using Fulmer and then sticking with him when he clearly had no command of his pitches. The Reds scored zero so it is hard to say that cost them the game, but it sure would have been a different headset hitting in the ninth down by 1 instead of 4.

Voice of Reason Posted May 20, 2021 Author Share Posted May 20, 2021 The home plate umpire tonight was the worst I have ever seen. He was just bad. Pitches that were very obvious strikes called balls and vice versa. It truly was unbelievable how bad he was on a many calls on both teams. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, very, very bad by major league standards, I umpired college/high school for 35 years and I could’ve done better than that!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So...how about this...Reds bust out the whooping sticks in the series finale. 13 hits, including a couple of homers, as they chase Cueto after four. Mahle goes 6, gives up 2. The pen shuts the Giants out the rest of the way, as the Reds win 7-2. What do you think? Nah, you're right. Cueto more likely to pitch a no-no against them. 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
