Taking the ball for your unstoppable, almost juggernautic 1st place Chicago Cubs will be one of our aces

Pitching for Dusty Baker, will be Johnny Cueto. Johnny hasnt exactly met expaectations this season, but looking back at Dustys trail of dead arms, much like Homer Baily, he'll probably want to wait for Dusty to leave town before he has any kind of breakout season, or it could be a short career for him. Here he is with a dumb look on his face.

I know its supposedly unrealistic to expect sweeps, but lets face it, the 2 Reds that have tormented us in the past have moved on, so Im expecting it. and then Im expecting to sweep the Natspos.

Hasn't Joey Votto done extremely well against the Cubs?

3-homer game in the Lieber start a few months ago.

Him and every other Red.

 

Of current and yesteryear.

 

I think Johnny Bench just homered again.

 

Followed by another Bret Boone homerun.

Harden wont be letting Chris Sabo, Eric Davis, Barry Larkin, Hal Morris, Joe Morgan, Pete Rose, Frank Robinson, Tony Perez, Paul O'Neil Deion Sanders, Adam Dunn, Ken Griffey Jr., Lou Piniella, or any other Reds player leave the park thank you very much.

I really hope that we can see an efficient outing from Harden today. It's disturbing to see he hasn't made it 6 innings in 4 of his 6 starts, and the 2 starts that he did go 7 innings, he threw 112 and 105 pitches.

I'm going to step out on a limb and predict that Harden allows exactly zero runs on zero hits today, and he won't walk anybody either. :wink:

I like that DBR can have a double meaning.

 

Chicago Cubs - 5

D-bag Dusty Baker Reds - 2

i love harden...i really do...but the one drawback with him is that he is a strikeout pitcher who has a limited pitch count...

 

if harden can throw 7 innings...that is probably the most we will get out of him...

 

thank goodness our bullpen is pretty solid

With his stuff, do you think he can modify his game and pitch to contact more? That and health are the only things keeping him from being an ace.
