This is my heart speaking but lets just keep the big 3, I'm not ready to part with any of them. I catch myself hoping they dont get traded even though I know that its likely for the better.

[UMFan83]

nevermind Javy is scratched....

 

[Tryptamine]

Let's not kid ourselves, this was prevention from Javy taking one in the ear.

Saving him for another pinch-hit walk-off against Garrett

So now Bryant or Rizzo will and it will prevent us from trading them

If Adbert wants to be a starter he’s going to have to figure out how to get lefty out.

Well Reds can’t be mad at Javy anymore. Javy couldn’t run so that’s clearly the only reason he walked to 1st yesterday.

Tomorrow could get ugly.

Cubs continue to be the dumbest team on the base path in baseball.

There was nothing wrong with going there. At all.

He was out by 15 feet.

[squally1313]

Hard to get too mad at losing to the best three innings/game of Vottos career.

 

Wouldn’t think the cubs will retaliate for that pitch to KB, especially because it made no sense to be on purpose in that scenario, but we’ll see.

After a perfect play by Votto, he was out by a lot less than 15 feet. Votto was bent over a tarp with his back towards home plate when making the catch. There were two out, which is when you take that gamble.

 

Make that send every time.

[Tim]

K-Boom!

 

(sorry, just wanted to be sure to get that in one last time)

Amir Garrett wants more?
