July 23, 200917 yr Author You can feel the rest of the life being sucked out of the Reds season with that hit.
July 23, 200917 yr Pujols, Manny, now all we need is for someone to sign Barry so he can hit one to the Levee.
July 23, 200917 yr Through Rosales' legs. Riiiiiiight through the wickets. Dusty had to put him in during a double switch to buy more time so Nick Masset could get loose in the bullpen. Seriously.
July 23, 200917 yr Agree with earlier post. Reds will be sellers this weekend. Arroyo's comments when Reds got to L.A. prophetic. Poor West Coast showing would translate to players being price tagged. Reds quit pretending they were 'in the race' when Puljos lit up Weathers for another grand slam July 3rd. Baker sure has made some bad calls when switching out pitchers. His choices have been drilled in big moments. Disappointing Reds team after hype over pitching being its' strong suit. How many stud Reds pitchers can anybody name from the last ten to fifteen years?:idunno:
July 23, 200917 yr Any one who doesn't think Adam Dunn's bat is not missed in this lineup is crazy. Donrt give me the defense angle either. I have seen misplayed balls all season long. They are rated like 13th in fielding . Plus he would have protected Votto in the lineup. All we got for a 40 and 100 guy was Micah Owings? How is the Volquez for Hamilton trade working out???? This team is anemic offensively. How long can Reds management get away with putting a AAA team on the field?
July 23, 200917 yr Honestly, I'm still on the fence as to whether we should be buyers or sellers. After a rough stretch, it's tempting to say sell, but there is still a lot of time left. Another bat would help this team out tremendously, although they still have plenty of shortcomings. The Reds never perform well in LA & this was no different. I was hoping they'd take 1 of 3, but they couldn't. Plenty of games to sneak in a few wins, though.

This team is anemic offensively. How long can Reds management get away with putting a AAA team on the field? We got Wilkin Castillo, Dallas Buck & Micah Owings in the Adam Dunn trade. It was a brilliant trade for the Reds, although we do miss Dunn's production. The Volquez trade is working out awesome, too. Hamilton has spent a lot of time on the DL & isn't putting up the #'s that he has the past few years. And don't forget, Daniel Rey Herrera was a part of that deal too.
July 23, 200917 yr 5.5 games out of first even as bad as they are. That's what I'm saying. We'd have to jump 4 teams in our division, but it's not impossible.
