Re: Red's Fans Check in
Isn't that what happens to people we trade away?
All our pitchers wind up winning when they leave Cincy.

Not so much with subpar position players. Hamilton was phenomenal when he was here, they had no vision. Stubbs and Gomes combined < Hamilton.

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. Are you reading this Walt?

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
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!

Re: Red's Fans Check in
Can someone explain why Volquez is still the #1 starter? Dan, you are a homer, do explain.

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.

I like Phillips, he and Votto are about the only players who come to play every day, as I have said before. Votto has had little opportunity to drive in runners with empty bases. Put some runners on for him and allow him to play baseball. Phillips is doing better because he is essentially a leadoff hitter for the second inning.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
Maloney and Frazier called up. Volquez and Smith sent down. Danny R Herrera has been DFA.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
And we should have left Maloney down in Louisville. Id take Willis over this clown, but Willis is hurt and probably about to go on the DL.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
Drew Stubbs 0'fer, 3K's. MVP! MVP!
Man the Reds play a decent team or two and they can't come close to competing. Playoff rematch, my ass. They didn't even belong on the diamond with them. Below .500 against teams with a winning record, heck they have only played 11 games against winning teams and they stink up the joint.
