May 8, 200719 yr 17 of their 32 runs have been scored in the 8th inning. Unreal. Brewers win again...Reds are 8 out and we are not even two weeks into May. ? ...and they really haven't played the tough part of their schedule.
May 8, 200719 yr Author Sad but true tale...if they don't make some changes to the bullpen...I will not step foot in GABP this summer. Why support this crap? Here's what cracks me up. Lance has been drilling this team pretty bad lately. From the GM, manager, pen, baseball IQ and on down. The lead on his blog? Come join me for a Homer outing at GABP. Classic...
May 8, 200719 yr This is comical. You can literally enjoy the game until the bullpen comes in. Are they really that bad? I hope they get something straightened out.

Seriously, as soon as Stanton came in I kept getting uncomfortable in my recliner.... by the time Coffey was in, my dad laughed and said "What are the chances he gives up a three-run homer right here?
May 8, 200719 yr ^I release everyone of them (outside of Saarloos)....Bring up the AAA bullpen. They can't be any worse.
May 8, 200719 yr They'll probably get the bullpen straightened out when we can't buy a hit. Or our starting pitching will tank. The joys of being a Reds fan.

May 8, 200719 yr I believe that puts the Reds at 5-9 on the year in games decided by 2 runs or less, including 6 straight losses by 2 runs or less. Not that anyone needs to be reminded, but that is an alarming stat. Had the Reds just been 3-3 in those last six games, oh well. Hopefully the Reds can AT LEAST finish this 4 game series 2-2, because they have 6 on the west coast coming up.

May 8, 200719 yr Krivsky told Daugherty that the bullpen could be fixed with the players on the staff. I have a feeling he is a little gun shy about pulling the trigger on another trade for relievers after what happened last time.
May 8, 200719 yr Uncle Miltie tomorrow.... Alright, FINE. Maybe the Reds can win the last 2 games of the series and go to the west on a positive note. lol
May 8, 200719 yr I have a feeling he is a little gun shy about pulling the trigger on another trade for relievers after what happened last time. I would agree with that, will be interesting if the Reds are near the division or wild card lead come the trade deadline. You would think he would do something.
May 8, 200719 yr I think this would be a cost effective solution. Put the money we save into a lucrative stock portfolio, then splurge on pitching next season.
