Quade needs to replace Soriano with Reed Johnson....RJ may not get Soriano's solo home runs, but he is clutch at the plate and in the outfield. The bullpen? Get a rope. :r Barney has been a revelation.....love the guy. :tu |
Re: Red's Fans Check in
Jeff Baker looks good too, but they won't give him much playing time. What's the story on him? Career utility player or new guy who hasn't earned playing time yet?

No, more like Cubs lose, Cubs lose!:banger:banger:banger:banger:banger
They gift wrapped it and handed it to us on a silver platter with all of those errors. We were lucky tonight, but a win is a win and I'll take it anyway we can get it. |
Re: Red's Fans Check in
You're welcome. :td

Re: Red's Fans Check in
Nothing like getting a win where the opposition has ZERO earned runs. Man, thank the lucky stars this division is so awful :tu

Yeah, finally, Only took him 2 years to get his average to almost .300. Nice to have such bad pitching to hit against lately. :tu |

Heck, he even has one more hit than strikeout now. He is almost out of the top 10, but he still averages more than one per game. :tu One good week doth not a great season make. ;) |

The pitcher for the Pirates was awesome last night.

I know we're second in runs scored in the league (at least we were), but we seem to consistently make mediocre pitchers look like aces when we are at bat. |

Reds D'oh! :bh :td :( :sh :hm

Re: Red's Fans Check in
Cubs fans feel your pain, Pirates have had their number the last couple seasons.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
Another tough series this weekend.
Let's see how many times we can get Gomes to be in the lineup in this series.:r |
Re: Red's Fans Check in
Since the Reds are stinking it up lately, I checked in on my buddy from CMU, Josh Collmenter picked up his second win of the season yesterday. Looks like the Reds could use him in their rotation. :tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
Gomes as the DH? Seriously? :hm

Re: Red's Fans Check in
Stubbs and Gomes, 0'fer 8 in front of the reigning MVP:bh

Re: Red's Fans Check in
I have always thought Dusty was an idiot for his theory of "play the guys, they will hit their way out of their slump" Gomes should be sitting or released :2

For those of you not sold on needing an upgrade at SS:
Reds SS vs SS production of other ML teams .237 BA (21st) .293 OBP (20th) .571 OPS (27th) Total errors from SS: 8 (24th) Fielding % (24th) Edgar Renteria 2 for last 29 Paul Janish 1 for last 22 Combined: 3 for last 51 :hm |

Re: Red's Fans Check in
Unfortunately, with the exception of batting average, SS appears to be more of an issue.
Reds LF vs LF production of other ML teams .194 BA (28th) .308 OBP (15th) .696 OPS (14th) 9 HR (3rd) 25 RBI (10th) :hm |

Re: Red's Fans Check in
I'm willing to include Gomes with Stubbs in the trade for Reyes, heck both their averages combined are about Reyes'. Not sure why he is still an everyday player, but everyone backs Stubbs and Bruce when they are in similar slumps. :hm
Obviously they need offensive help more than defensive right now. The Indians gave up 4 essentially unearned runs last night and the Reds still lost, two of the errors led to all 4 runs. They are also slowing down on run production severely recently. They still can't hit average to above-average pitching. :rolleyes: |
Re: Red's Fans Check in
You gotta love the passion that Votto has. He gets so mad if he screws up. My boy Stubbs got a lead off single. Gomes does what he always does. Votto then grounds into double play and he was extremely upset with himself.

Stubbs has come up a bit of late, but I'd make that trade in order to get Reyes right now. The bad thing is, if we were to get rid of him, he would turn into the next Josh Hamilton.:r |
Re: Red's Fans Check in
Look at the bright side, Guys....at least you're not Cubs fans. ;)

Its too bad that Votto and Philips seem to be the only two that want to play most days. Votto is a pasionate player, he plays hard and I like it, he doesn't have much in front of him right now. He was probably mad because there was actually a base runner on for him today. In two days 1 for 16 out of Stubbs and Gomes in front of Votto, I'd be pissed too. Not like Stubbs who gets a fly ball caught and gets pissed because he swung at a bad pitch, I don't know why he expects to get on base as bad as he plays some days. :hm |

Not so much with subpar position players. Hamilton was phenomenal when he was here, they had no vision. Stubbs and Gomes combined < Hamilton. :tu |
Re: Red's Fans Check in
Sounds like Alonso is ready to go, this clears the way for the trade.
Gomes, Stubbs and Renteria, with a nice Double-A middle reliever. Heisey to CF, Alonso to LF, Reyes to SS and lead-off, Janish plays back up to 3 of 4 IF positions. You upgrade two positions and get two better bats, one at leadoff. Renteria gets put on assignment when he shows up and they have two sub par outfielders. :tu Are you reading this Walt? :hm |
Re: Red's Fans Check in
I'm down with that. Alonso looks good. Hope he isn't a bust when he gets here, though.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
Reds Ugh :bh :( :td :sh
Drew Stubbs 1 for 5! MVP! MVP! Nothing like a base hit in the bottom of the ninth when it means nothing. He did make it to 50 strikeouts today! :rolleyes: |
Re: Red's Fans Check in
Can someone explain why Volquez is still the #1 starter? Dan, you are a homer, do explain. :hm

Today's game was an embarrassment. Only true offensive players right now are Phillips and Hernandez. Even Votto is below .300 as of late. He's been in a slump now for a couple of weeks. |
