June 6, 201016 yr Reds finish the road trip 3-3 and all things considered, that's a success. Reds now have 16 of their next 22 at home. They need to play well because they have an 11 game road trip in July before the All Star break.
June 7, 201016 yr I know Math wanted 6-0, but yes I'm thrilled with a 3-3 trip. I knew the Reds had LeCure facing Carpenter the last game of that series, so splitting the other 2 games, and winning two out of three against the Nats was definitely something I was going to be very happy with. The Reds have a tough 4 game series coming up with the pitching laden Giants. Let's hope the Dodgers can put a hurting on the Cardinals on the first stop of St. Louis's west coast trip.
June 7, 201016 yr Author So if the Reds can at least split with the Giants, they got Kansas City for the weekend, 4-2 is more than possible, maybe better.
June 7, 201016 yr Like LRCW said I will take .500 on that trip all day. Need to have a nice little run here with all the home games.
June 7, 201016 yr If I was the manager, I would try to give Cordero a wake-up call and today was a perfect day to do so. He had Massett warming up to begin the Inning so it would have not took much to be ready. When Cordero walked the leadoff batter on an off speed pitch, I would have yanked him from the game and told him he just can't keep walking the leadoff batter and not throwing your best pitch. But Dusty would never do it because he is a buddy with the players and not their manager. I would think having someone warming up would be a little silent message too him anyway.

June 7, 201016 yr I would think having someone warming up would be a little silent message too him anyway. Was it Masset warming up? Brantley initially said it was Masset but then said it was LeCure getting in his bullpen session as they had initially slotted him to come in if Arroyo struggled early. The game was blacked out for me so I could only listen.

June 7, 201016 yr Author A 4-2 week is impossible unless there is a rain out. There is a reason why I struggle with basic math, well, I guess everyone will just have to be happy with a 4-3 week then. 5-2 would be a nice bonus :thumb:
June 7, 201016 yr Big week for the Reds coming up. Hopefully with school being out now they'll get some bigger crowds during the week to help support them.
June 7, 201016 yr I am going to one game this week for sure...possibily two, but we'll see. I bet Saturday is 35,000+
