  1. Lol... He's definitely having one of those games 2 Homers and the second was a big one New game
  2. Id like to see how he can do coming out of the pen the rest of season after Imanaga returns, he might be affective for an inning or two, maybe even once through an order if needed. In off season work on that 3rd pitch for him, and control, and see if that can help keep him in the rotation going forward.
  3. Likely with 2 outs in the 9th and McGuire will be up 😅
  4. Problem with a couple of these guys, they have short hot streaks and long cold streaks.
  5. Saw him limping heading to dugout after he scored, should of been on 3rd there
  6. They were a couple big hits away from hitting that number already 😅
  7. That just it, as I have mentioned it too soon for any real significant trade for a true quality starter or even bullpen guy, nobody trading those guys now unless Hoyer really over pays for one, which unless it a Skenes type we don't want that to happen. Just need to hang tight and hope the hitters can continue to bail them out when needed and or pitching can hold up and not totally fall apart til July when these deals can be made to upgrade. Just tough with 3 mid starters, and 2 raw rookies now. Bullpen that inconsistent for most part.
  8. Id like to see Busch play every game too, especially for his glove. Just think it just that Turner is their main bench guy and it more about getting him his AB to stay fresh and the best way to do it is subbing for Busch against most lefties.
  9. Not saying he is, just that it was likely their plan going into the season against most or tougher lefties. 🤷‍♂️
  10. Isn't this why they added Turner (RH bat) to get these starts against lefties
  11. He'll be the one going down with Horton staying up when Imanaga returns
  12. Mentioned the other day, I know it too soon for a significant trade but damn it going to be tough winning games going forward til July with this rotation and bullpen. Be great but these bats just aren't going to keep scoring 5+ to bail them out
  13. Hope everyone enjoyed that 2 run lead, it now a 2 run deficit 🙄 Already hit that number 4 and it just the first inning
  14. PCA with a whiffle ball single 😅 Damn Nico give him a chance to steal a base
  15. We'll never know, but at least there he could of worked on adjusting or whatever he needed to do before returning, like I showed he was struggling some before he got hurt. No real time to adjust once your back and all it did was continue his struggle. Yes, now that he is back, dropping him in order can't hurt, maybe it takes a little pressure off him and he can see the pitcher for a few batters before hitting. Hopefully today a good day for him, they need him, especially now with both catchers down.
  16. After yesterday, he's 3 for 19 with 9 Ks. He was 2 for his last 17 with 9 Ks before he got hurt. He definitely wasn't ready yet, could of used a couple games in Iowa before returning. Getting a typical game in Cincinnati from him today would be nice.
  17. Damn, who cursed the Catchers this weekend. Gonna need the top of order to do some damage today, maybe McGuire will have one of those wasn't supposed to play but ended up getting a big hit or two for them today.
