Reds (Lodolo) vs Cubs (Pomeranz): 5/31/25, 1:20pm

[JHBulls]

Ted Williams once said pitchers are the dumbest members of a baseball team. Right down the middle is asking to get smoked. And yet, Dansby and half the MLB world can’t do a damn thing about it. 

[UMFan83]

Honestly feels like they are perfectly fine with walking Nico to set up another GIDP

[Geographyhater8888]

Disgusting.

[profisme]

Wtf is Nico even swinging at?

[UMFan83]

What the hell was that Nico?

man this offense is pressing big time right now 

[Clem Fandango]

Oooofff, nico wtf

[Outshined_One]

I know it's baseball. I know it's dumb.

But still. Godfuckingdamnit.

[Hot Sauce]

C’mon Justin Tucker Turner! 

[chibears55]

Swing at ball 4 and 5...

Gonna leave another runner stranded on 2B with no outs

[UMFan83]

Opponents ERA this homestand against the Cubs: 2.20

[Hot Sauce]

Should’a just gave PCA the green light to steal 3rd and home.

[Derwood]

JFC this lineup blows right now

[chibears55]

PCA should of stole 3rd and home...

[profisme]

Jesus Christ. Just have PCA steal all of the bases next time. This guy came in throwing junk and they couldn’t touch him. 

[Irrelevant Dude]

Too soon to give Theo a call for the annual "offense is broken" press conference?

[abuck1220]

hard to string together three shittier abs than those three. 

[Geographyhater8888]

Keep Busch on the bench vs a righty too? 

[Irrelevant Dude]

Also, when can we stop pretending Turner is a competent hitter again just because he got a couple hits?

[PeanutPunch33]

5 duds in a row for the best offense in baseball 

 

[gflore34]

We're getting slumping, automatic out Swanson now, hopefully, not too long.  But I wouldn't be surprised if it's for several games.

I think because Counsell thought he would end up getting walked or they would put in a lefty against him. But anything would have looked better than those three Javy-like at-bats. 

[Hot Sauce]

Offense is poo poo but that performance by Brown was excellent. 

[Geographyhater8888]

Regression will happen but where’s our slump buster Tucker been? 

[Hot Sauce]

Keller continues to be a stud.
