Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Can someone please explain why Volquez is the #1 starter right now? Got bailed out on Opening Day and now 4 runs in the first. Should have never quit the 'juice' apparently. :bh

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

yea, Volquez can't find the plate to save his life. You still not getting the games in HD??

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

On FSNOHHD its the Cavs game :rolleyes:

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

well, FSNOH plays the cavs games, FSNCIN plays the Reds games.....try the correct channel.
My guide had FSNOH, FSNOHHD, FSNCIN, FSNCINHD

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

yea, well, talked to my buddy who has Time Warner... TW does not have FSCin, only FSOH, so they split the HD/SD content with the Cavs games cause they are cheap....best to swith to Directv, better quality, better programing, better overall!!

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

I used to have the worst cable company ever, Insight was so terrible, so Time Warner is working just fine. :tu

nothing looks better than scoring 43 runs in 5 games.....YOWZA!

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

The Reds bats seem to be on fire :tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Some bad score keeping for LeCure. :td Where is the home field score keeper? :hm

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

I can live with 5-1. I was hoping for 6-0.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Yep! :tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

A pretty good start considering the Brewers were the sexy pick to win the division. The Astros will likely be one of the bottom 2 all season, but 2 out of 3 isn't bad. :tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

I totally agree. I absolutely love our catching situation right now. Both guys are great. We also have C talent stacked in the minors with Grandal and Mesoracco.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Nice game yesterday :bh

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Bruce looks very bad on the curve balls!

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

He sure does Hotreds. Hopefully he can correct that soon.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

He might end up a lot like Adam Dunn, he loves swinging for the fences but sometimes just looks foolish. Stubbs looks foolish on a lot of pitches too. Its kind of ironic that the Reds annoucers still call them "two of the best all around outfielders in the league". There is a reason that he and Stubbs were both in the top 20 last season in strikeouts and they both start out there again this season. :rolleyes:

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

2 more strikeouts each for Stubbs and Bruce today. Early in the season, but you need to put runners on base for the big hitters and they aren't doing it. Votto goes 4-5 and gets 1 RBI :hm :td

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

I have never liked Juan Francisco. I don't understand people who say, "Oh, he has great potential and can hit the ball a ton" :confused:

He can't hit a breaking ball to save his life! Also, for a fastball hitter, he couldn't hit any fastballs yesterday either. Go back to AAA you punk :td

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Totally agree. I can see him being traded at some point.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Defensively, yes. Offensively, no.


Looks like we're back to normal. Kill everyone in the division, but always suck everytime we play the West. Another division championship, only to lose out in the first round of the playoffs.:td

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Except the two of them already have errors in the outfield and they did a great job staring at each other in the last game against the Astros when they let a fly ball fall between them. :bh

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

But yet, you love Drew Stubbs and Homer Bailey, both of whom belong in Triple A. :sh

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Oh Volquez....another multi run first inning....Really? Don't become another Aaron Harang

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

We have the lead back for now. Im going to bed. I hate these west coast games.

I didn't know we were using this thread as a way to boost our posts Dan! :sl

{this post was for Adam} LOL :we

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Dan only gets to up his post count if the Reds are winning. :rolleyes:

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Free post for my post count :banger

Because post counts matter to me :wnr

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Nice pickups :D

:tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Nice haul as well! :tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

No real sports content ;)

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

On a sports note, Bruce and Stubbs have both moved into the top 10 in strikeouts :tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Oh sure :tu

It is early in the season ;)

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Yeah, by the end of the season they could end up one-two in the standings. They finished in the top 25 last season and wanted to start where they left off. ;)

I'm still offering the bet about Stubbs not batting over .330 if you think he is going to turn it around. Heck, I'll even lower it to .320 just for you. :tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Nah. I like Stubbs though for his speed.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Always nice to have a leadoff hitter with speed that can't get on base. He can't steal bases from the dugout. :r

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

He is 65th in the NL in OBP% It will improve throughout the year.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Hell of a game last night.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Yep. I read an article somewhere saying that Bruce could be the very next Adam Dunn (but can play defense). Power hitter that isn't selective and strikes out WAY too often.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Are you high? His on base percentage lands him at 140th in the NL, 224th in all of MLB. Excellent for a lead off hitter. :bh

Or did you mean On base plus slugging? Where he is still not in the top 100. ;s

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

That is my thought, although the Reds announcers would lead you to believe that he will be challenging for the HR crown and Joey Votto's MVP award. They had a poll question the other night on who would be the best hitter on the Reds the other night and both announcers said that Jay Bruce would be a better hitter than Joy Votto this year. Luckily most fans were smarter than the announcers as they picked Joey Votto by about a 50% margin. :rolleyes:

Nick Masset....ughhh.... What i want to say would get me an infraction on here. :c
