I agree we don't look like a playoff teams, but we are still better than the competition.  ESPN still has our odds of making the playoffs at 43%.  That is much better than the Padres (27%) or the Cards (19%).  We have gone 4-6 over our last 10 games while the Pads are 3-7 and the Cards 5-5.  So no other team is really hot either.

Lets not sugar coat it Fred

Over their last 18 games they're 6-12 and have lost SIX series in a row including losing series to the Marlins, Cubs, and Tigers none of which are good ball clubs. They've scored 2 runs or less in 9 of those 18 games. Coming into tonight's game their team batting average is .200 over the last dozen games or so.

And they're in real danger of losing tonight vs friggin Pirates. 

Are they still in it ? sure Are they scaring any teams that will be in playoffs ?  Hilarious

6-13

I realize this is a frustrating stretch. But we are not losing due to injuries. This is the same team that was on fire a month ago. They could easily still make the playoffs.

This team isn’t the same without Winker. So painfully obvious.

Padres

I don't want to get trashed for "accepting mediocrity" but I am very happy that the Reds are playing meaningful games this late in the season. This is what being a fan is supposed to be about. For too many years this late in the season all I looked at was the stats of our best players to see how they would finish.

You just knew that long delay to start the bottom of the 4th was going to screw up Sonny Gray when he came back out for the 5th. Pitching a near flawless game to that point and then gives up 3 runs in the 5th. Don't see any way they comeback in this game.

What happened? I just got back from Oktoberfest, and only caught a bit on the radio. They were going on about wet socks or something…

Well before the top of the 4th the home plate ump talked to the Reds trainer because he was feeling a little light headed but stayed in. He then left before the bottom of the 4th causing a good 10 minute delay because one of the other umps had to put the pads on. By the time the top of 5 came around Gray had been waiting for 25-30 minutes. 3 of the first 4 Dodgers get hits and all eventually scored. Defense didn't exactly help either but that delay clearly screwed up his momentum.

Probably safe to say this is what a one game playoff against LA would look like…
