Cuteo looked great. Votto is certainly doing good in the 2nd spot!

Well, last night wasn't a very good one for the Redlegs.

Starscream · 04-22-2014, 02:36 PM

Last night was rough. Offense has come around, but the bullpen is killing us.

elderboy02 · 04-22-2014, 08:37 PM

Cueto dominated tonight

Brian D. · 04-23-2014, 12:38 PM

Pitching a complete game is the only way to be sure your bullpen won't blow the win...

Reds have moved up some in the standings...or you could look at it as one or two of the division's perennial cellar dwellers are on their way down as usual.

We look a lot better than we did a few weeks ago, but we'll be lucky to see this team make even a wildcard spot. Lots of good things going for this team right now, but a lot of crap to balance it back out to make a mediocre ballclub.

elderboy02 · 04-24-2014, 08:43 PM

3 in a row!

Starscream · 04-27-2014, 09:52 AM

I know it's still early, but it looks like Atlanta is gonna be a threat this year to go deep in the playoffs.

elderboy02 · 04-27-2014, 07:50 PM

Yeah, they are pretty darn good. Hopefully we can beat the Cubbies again.

Billy Hamilton hit his first major league home run last night in the Reds' victory. Good thing he did, the scores are way too tight for consistent wins more often than not.

elderboy02 · 05-02-2014, 05:02 AM

Brayan Pena is looking good!

Brian D. · 05-05-2014, 02:42 PM

Looks like the Reds are running low on healthy catchers. Does this signal the return of Corky Miller??

elderboy02 · 05-05-2014, 10:03 PM

Not good news about Bruce...

Brian, I think we need Benito Santiago as our catcher. I loved watching him throw runners out from his knees.

They'll miss his glove in the field, but not so much his bat at the plate. Jeez does anybody chase after more low, outside curves and sliders?

chippewastud79 · 05-07-2014, 09:03 PM

Not a good rehab start for Arnoldis. I'm still wondering if they shouldn't have shopped him after the injury.

hotreds · 05-07-2014, 09:09 PM

Aroldis didn't fare well, either!

elderboy02 · 05-08-2014, 10:03 AM

I am worried about Chapman getting torn up in AAA.

Having the injury he has is going to have an impact of the velocity that he used to throw at. I really think that there is no way he comes back as the same player.

Hmm...Chapman hit 102 mph yesterday; not quite 105, but he just got back to 'The Bigs' ya know. He even had a bit of curve/break on one or two of those bullets, not sure he knows how he manages to do that trick himself.
