Re: Red's Fans Check in
There is nothing more infuriating then listening to Joe Joe talk... "Well... when I played, this is how it was done".... "Joe Morgan wouldn't have let that ball through"... "Joe Morgan would have ridden that bomb a la Slim Pickens because thats the kind of team player Joe Morgan was."
And for the youngsters.... http://www.signaltonoiserpg.com/imag...he-bomb-in.jpg |

"When Joe Morgan was playing the Cubs in '74, I would have played a pop-up with the sun in my eyes just like DeSean should have fielded that punt." "When Joe had a sore ankle, he rubbed dirt on it and didn't miss a ground ball, players these days could take a page from old Joe's book. " :confused: Whom ever came up with the idea of allowing him to not only talk about baseball, but all sports must have been losing their job anyway. I am sure his discussion on the US Open or Ryder Cup will be just riveting. :td |

BTW, there are a couple of recent studies that have come out saying that corked bats don't really help at all. When that study came out, I bet Albert Bell shed a tear or two.:D |

Last I had heard, Sports Science or someone concluded that it gives you about a 2-3% improvement on distance, about 10-12 feet on a homerun. But you still have to hit the baseball. :sh |
Re: Red's Fans Check in
Halladay owns the Reds. That was just plain dominating (again). :jd

reds suck...

Re: Red's Fans Check in
I can't wait to see our call-ups. I am excited to see Devin Mesorraco. Although I have heard that he is pretty fatigued at this point because he has played 100+ games so far.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
Another over-hyped prospect on his way to the majors, lets see if he can be better than Stubbs and Janish. :hm

Good to see we dumped Hermida and DFA'd Lewis.:tu We need some definite upgrades for the left side of the field next year. LF and third are gonna be major problems next season if we don't make some changes. Heisey/Sappelt/Alonso in LF isn't good and Rolen/Frazier/Francisco/possibly Alonso at third isn't gonna be pretty either. |
Re: Red's Fans Check in
I had to see Francisco today. God, he is still not very good. His swing is horrendous. If I was a pitcher, I would just throw breaking balls because his swing is so darn long. Every time he swung and missed, he fell over onto the plate.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
Also, Brook Jacoby needs to be fired. When you have Stubbs striking out all the time and you can't get him to adjust somehow, you have failed as a manager.

I wrote Francisco off last year after his big league disaster. He hasn't been bad in the minors this year, but I see him as another EE at third. Mediocre hitter with bad defense, yet good pitching will wipe him out as well. Dan is basically saying that Fransisco has the same swing as Stubbs, which is also about the same as Frazier and Sappelt. Way too long and trying to hit for power, yet they are not power hitters. |

To be honest, I am more than ok with him being on this team as long as Dusty realizes that Stubbs will be nothing more than a 6-8 hitter. We all know that he can't be a leadoff hitter b/c of his swing. Stubbs' numbers would be acceptable as a bottom of the order hitter on most MLB teams. |
Re: Red's Fans Check in

I like him 6-8 too, the biggest issue with him in Cincy was the fact that he was batting leadoff and couldnt get on base. Now that hes in the middle of the lineup, it works well. He's batting around what you could expect out a 6-8 batter and it gets him work while at the same time taking pressure off him of getting on base. Also, the speed in the end of the lineup is a nice jolt. To be honest, I am more than ok with him being on this team as long as Dusty realizes that Stubbs will be nothing more than a 6-8 hitter.

Tigers pulled off a nice one tonight. Maybe I should cheer for them more hardily. Its tough not getting FSN Detroit in Cincinnati, I wish I could see the Tigers more often. They have better announcers on FSN Detroit too. Cutting away during the rain delay to see the Reds losing was kind of ironic, as I was reminded why watching the Tigers was always more fun. :tu |
Re: Red's Fans Check in

Unfortunately, I don't think the Tigers can get out of the AL unless their starting pitchers can all give them 7 innings a game....not just Verlander and Fister. |

30 one run losses this season.
Only team that is beating us in that category is KC with 31. |
