Re: 2010 Cincinnati Reds

10-11 NOW! Mike Leake is offically our ace, another great outing from him.
I love Scott Rolen batting 4th!

Rolen has been on fire. He's just got to avoid the DL.

He is just a good professional hitter.
More times then not if there is a man on third with less then two outs he is going to get him home.
Phillips just swung for the fence all the time when he batted 4th.

Re: 2010 Cincinnati Reds

11-11 now!
If we could play the Astros every game we would be World Series contenders!
Arroyo back on track, Oswalt is now 23-2 life time vs the Reds. He is due to lose about his next 20 games vs us.
Nice shots by Votto and Bruce!
I love winning!!!!
4 in a row now!!!

Re: 2010 Cincinnati Reds

I absolutely LOVE the lineup...w/ Phillips in the 2 hole, Cabrera down in the lineup. Janish & Hanigan rakin'. we need Cordero to STOP those damn walks,& retire the side in order. I hope Dickerson's wrist is ok...anyone heard anything?

Keep on "Rolen"... Reds

The offense has surprised me this year. I thought the Reds would be hitting worse than this. Hopefully Stubbs can get into a good lead-off groove and Rolen can stay healthy. He's been a great clean-up guy.

Saw this in John Fay article: "...Dickerson was placed on the 15-day disabled list with a broken right wrist."

SHOCKER!!!!!!!

Seriously tho can we quit wasting our time with him???
The dude is more fragile then Greg Oden's knees!!!
They really need to trade him for anything they can get at this point, he is just not dependable at all. The guy is 28 years old, it is not like he is some young guy who is going to get better. Its amazing you would think he is 48 with all the injuries he suffers.
I would much rather stick with the struggling Stubbs who you can count on to play then Dickerson. By the way Dickerson was only batting .227 when he was injured.

Re: 2010 Cincinnati Reds

Nice homestand, 4-2 we are now 16-16.
I hate the Cubs, it is great to take 2 of 3 from them.

Re: 2010 Cincinnati Reds

And now 2 games over .500. Here's to hoping Cueto stays under control, tonight.

Cueto's line:

A Complete game of 1 HIT, SHUTOUT...baseball...WOW!

Well he stayed under control!
1 hit no walks and a complete game shutout!
We are now only 2 games back, I love winning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Seriously this team is really fun to watch.
We also need to give Dusty his due, everyone wants to bash him when he messes up but no one (but myself) wants to give him props when he does good.
Take a look at what he as done the last two weeks.
1. Switched the line up around.
Moving Cabrera to the lead off spot, Philllips to second and Rolen to 4th turned out to be great moves. Stubbs has even been better since moving down in the line up.
2. Keeping Harang in the rotation.
Everyone was calling for Harang to lose his spot two weeks ago, Dusty said no way and Harang has had 3 good starts in a row.
3. Starting Nix two night ago even after Gomes had a great game the night before.
Listening to the Reds inside pitch on the radio two nights ago everyone was calling in complaining that Nix was starting in LF that night. Well Nix had a huge RBI double and made a diving catch in LF that Gomes would have never came close to catching.

Right now Dusty is pushing all the right buttons, we are 11-4 in our last 15!

piggy back...also The Reds schedule has been BRUTAL out of the gates. If it was said The Reds would be 3 games over 500 after April, i would of laughed in their face...seriously fellaz. hopefully we don't start getting injuries, & fade toward the all star break.

Re: 2010 Cincinnati Reds

And now Homer Bailey is tearing it up. This team is hot, hot, hot.

[SlimKibbles]

Re: 2010 Cincinnati Reds

Yeah Homer pitched a great game today. 73 of his 90 total pitches were strikes and he never reached 3 balls in a count to any hitter. I hope he found his mojo and we see similar outings from him going forward. Just stay ahead in the count and throw strikes, Homer!

Still just May... Must not start to believe... Must wait until August to shed comfortable pessimistic mindset.
