Track the Reds (2nd Half, Week 3)

[HammerTime]

It's not our fault Jergens has the most messed-up name in baseball, and possibly all of sports.

 

Strike 2. :lol: Jurrjens

[DragonFire]

Do you really think that was intentional?

 

Of course not. It was mostly a joke, simply a nod to the fact that the Braves starting pitcher was beaned on consecutive nights.

[HOMELESS CAMEL]

I like Arroyo but has anyone ever asked him why he is constanty readjusting his junk? He should have his at bat music changed to the Devinals, "I touch myself".

 

Watching Arroyo since he first arrived in Cincinnati, you can't help but ask that question :lol:

[SSC]

You keep making fun of posters with your "sky is falling" after every loss stuff. However, the Reds are 27-27 since May 29th, that's 2 months of .500 baseball. Do you think that .500 baseball will win the division or the wild card? It doesn't appear that the Reds are going to make any moves at the trade deadline so how are they going to turn it around?

 

According to Lance's blog they are above .500 every month this year. So if they go above .500 by 2 games a month the rest of the year they'd have a really good chance to make it IMO. I don't think the Cards are going to run away and hide. The Reds just need to stay close through the West coast swing.

This is day 3 of my complaining that Chris Dickerson isn't in Cincinnati.

 

With that said, I like the lineup, except that Hanigan isn't catching.

This is one of the best lineups we have with as well as Nix has been hitting the ball.

The more I think about the Dickerson deal the more I'm inclined to believe that they think he is not ready to play everyday. They have played him 3 days in a row and then a day off and then 3 more and a day off. Why couldn't they do that up here with the lefties that they face?

[UKMustangFan]

Awful, awful call.

[Blue Magic]

Volquez is scaring me. He looks a little off again.

[EZ Living]

It looks like another short outing by Volquez, 46 pitches in the first 2 innings.

[TrueBlueWildcat]

GO BRAVES!

[UKMustangFan]

So what is that, 30 straight scoreless innings on Sundays...:lol: It's gotta end sooner or later.

[HammerTime]

Spring is on his way to Pittsburgh to join the Reds, hopefully he has Dickerson in the back seat.

[EZ Living]

Looks like everybody on the the Reds except Volquez is in a hurry to get to Pittsburgh. Hanson has thrown 53 pitches through 4 innings and Volquez 79. The Sunday blues continue.
