Our pitching has been pretty good except Roark who hasn't been lighting anyone up.. 
The Cubs, also in last have scored 46 runs and given up 59 as opposed to our 16 and 27..(before today) That's a HUGE difference  and the differential is just 2 runs.  We're not getting blown out by anyone, not even close. We're just not scoring runs. If they can start hitting in a timely fashion and the pitching holds up they're going to win a bunch of games.. 
On the other hand, if the pitching goes south all hope is lost.. We'll see. 

Stay positive.  ThumbsUp even if it hurts.

It looks like all the pieces are there for this club to get string some Ws we're just waiting for that spark to set it off.

I never would have guessed that losing Gennett would hurt them this badly.

20 games in will be a much better measuring stick.

I figure another 155 games we'll know if they'll win another game this season or not..

I'm being patient with the new hitting coach. However, he better fix this slump soon or I would suggest replacing him. He did a good job for the Dodgers last year, but the Reds are not the same team obviously. I think the Reds might not be as talented either.

They’re honoring 150 years by trying to score 150 runs on the season.

The bats came alive last night. 5 home runs in a 14-0 win. Lets hope the slump is over.

Trevor Richards kind of dumped some water on the spark, but Steckenrider relit it..  ThumbsUp  If you're a Marlins fan you gotta hate the move by Mattingly..
