      Billy Hamilton in his 2 career starts, 6-9, 1 RBI, 4 runs, 6 stolen bases. I hope Dusty lets him start against New York in this series.

        Billy's weekend guarantee's him a spot on playoff roster and confident in Dusty knowing this, 2 of 3 on the road I'll take it.

              Nice article on Hamilton: http://redsminorleagues.com/?p=8572

              He added this in the comments.

              That is crazy.

                  I would recommend stopping by the Moerlein House while you are there, it is by GABP by the river. They have my favorite beer Kentucky Bourbon Barrel, about 3 of those and you will sleep very well:wink: The food is also very good. Its the 1st place I go when I get to Cincinnati the day before opening day, I am there every year.

                      Playoffs? Playoffs!?

                      PLAYOFFS.

                      Or should I say, play-IN.

                      It looks like it's going to be CIN/PIT to make it to the NLDS, as it probably should be. Besides being a Reds fan and KNOWING we're a better overall team, we have to have the edge going in being able to throw Latos, Cueto, Bailey, hell even Arroyo. Shoot, Leake wouldn't make me say, "Oh no...," either. Meanwhile, the Pirates may be trying to throw it all at us to get home field while also making sure their ace is ready to go for all the marbles.

                      Or we could be hit with tons of second guessing when/if we lose the one gamer.

                      Go away pessimism side. Go away.

                        If we don't win the division (which we probably won't) I'm happy we will be playing against Pittsburgh. We match up well against them, not so much against St. Louis.
                        Them throwing Liriano against us in the play in game worries me though. Considering our best hitters are left handed, and he has lefties having like a .340 OPS against him. Regardless, the #1 thing right now should be at least getting home field for the play in game.
                        Also I hope Hamilton gets the start today. Ludwick just looked awful last night. Almost cost us the game considering how many men he left on base in scoring position last night.

                          Mat Latos will replace Greg Reynolds for the start in tomorrow's game, which would put Latos in line to pitch the wild card game. Say this is the case since the Reds pretty much lost the division tonight (barring an epic collapse by the Cardinals and the Reds winning out). Rotation for the Pittsburgh series will be Homer Bailey in Game 1, Bronson Arroyo in Game 2, and Johnny Cueto in the season finale.

                          And once again, Dusty refuses to put in Billy Hamilton as a pinch runner because the tying run was at the plate....game ends on a double play. SMH

                            Baseball is weird. Bruce steals 2 bases off Dice K without an issue. Hamilton gets thrown out by 5 feet.

                              What?? Obviously pitchers are going to try and speed up delivery quick pitch when a base stealer is on not to mention looked like pitchout

                                Welp, we pissed away our chance at home field for the play-in game with PIT. PNC Park is going to be nuts, but baseball isn't a game of emotions and being all amped up like that. Being on the road doesn't bother me, in fact, I'd rather it be on the road for all the marbles. Sucks we had to stumble here at the end, but that's what it is and we're gonna have to roll with it.

                                Just got word that Johnny Cueto will go for us. Like I said, I'm pretty comfortable with a handful of our starters for the biggest game of the year, but I do wonder if Latos abdominal injury was the deciding factor to naming Cueto the starter over Latos.

                                It's been a fun year, it's awesome seeing the Reds being a consistent playoff contender and I think we can definitely at least make it to the World Series out of the crazy NL. I would love to win a playoff series for starters, but I have supreme confidence we can win a couple of them.

                                Let's Go Reds!
