  1. It is a little bit humorous that we were laughing at the Cardinals record like 3 days ago and now they are 0.5 games behind us
  2. Dammit Kyle we need you to be a hitter not a slugger
  3. We're only 3 games out of first, it's still good it's still good
  4. The Reds don't seem to want to stop scoring. Our putrid offense farted out their best effort all in 1 inning
  5. Just realized this is game 81. Halfway through the season.
  6. Sucks that our 7th starter couldn't hold one of the better offenses in the league down (yes I know we've had more issues that Butler lately)
  7. If the Reds win this would be their first series win against the Cubs at GABP since 2014
  8. Damn we're going to be 3 games out by day's end of things keep going this poorly
  9. Dwyer looking like a beast out there
  10. I was just about to ask if his advanced stats suggested he was actually pitching well and not continuing to get lucky because he's only allowed 1 ER in his past 12 innings. But now he will give up a 3 run inning and it will be your fault (and a little mine)
  11. Nice this trainwreck team couldn't score on 1st and 3rd and 0 outs
  12. isn't this the opposite of how this is used in the movie? i haven't seen it in years, but i thought this happened when the team was on a hot streak, and they weren't buying it I thought the one guy was talking up the Indians spring training and the other one says they're still shitty. I could be wrong though it's been awhile for me too.
  13. No way he resigns there right
  14. Definitely a bit over dramatic but it's funny how last year a 3-0 deficit to the Reds would be like "oh well how many innings will it take us to come back" and this year it's like "hmm ok anything else on tonight?"
  15. Monty magic is gone. Double, single, double, HR to start the inning :(
  16. It's almost like this offense is 29th in the league in batting average this year.
  17. Why the horsefeathers do I keep seeing this as a story? I saw the video where Gammons said it and I know he didn't really say it like it was a joke, but its freaking obvious that the Cubs were really not going to have Trump "fire" Miggy. Even the most tone deaf front offices would know that this wasn't a good idea, much less a sharp and tactful one like the Cubs
  18. crazy that he got that hurt on a sliding attempt at a foul ball that a) if I am remembering the play correctly, he didnt really have a great chance of catching and b) the type of slide he made didn't really increase his chances at catching the ball. But then again I'm posting in a thread that was started because another one of our guys got injured catching a routine popup so I guess its not all that crazy.
  19. I'm so conflicted on the concept of pitch framing. Does it make such a sizable different that it makes sense to go after someone like Avila? If it does make a big deal, does acquiring a TOR pitcher and starting them instead of a guy like Lackey or Butler mitigate that to a large degree (beyond the obvious discrepancy in talent)?
  20. without 3 of our best 5 starters pitching too I'm dumb...Montgomery, Hendricks...
