Yeah, and it's not like the two positions weren't blatantly obvious needs. Makes it so much worse because the division was clearly winnable coming into the year. That's kind of Bob C's calling card with the Reds, though. Half measures.

Feels good owning the Cardinals.
RE: REDS JULY GAMES THREAD - cinci4life - 07-25-2021
Welp so much for the sweep. Gray rocked to the tune of 8 runs.
RE: REDS JULY GAMES THREAD - bengalfan74 - 07-26-2021
The Reds need to get hot right now. They're 6 down in the loss column and they can't slip any further behind. Unfortunately the Brewers have the Pirates right now so the Brewers sweeping them wouldn't surprise me.
I doubt the Reds cam slip into a wildcard so we need the Brewers to go ice cold and quick.
RE: REDS JULY GAMES THREAD - cinci4life - 07-27-2021
Combo of both the pen and offense blowing this one. Maybe more the offense. Can't load the bases with no out and not score. Can't do it. Baez should get suspended for the crap he just did. Yelled at AG going up to the plate, continued yelling at AG as he was slowly running up the line after the hit, and worst of all slamming the bat down at AG's feet. I'm truely amazed AG didn't go after him.
RE: REDS JULY GAMES THREAD - cinci4life - 07-27-2021
As of now Baez is in the starting lineup for the Cubs. Could be an interesting night after the crap he pulled especially if AG comes in to face him.
EDIT: Baez no longer in the starting lineup. Haven't seen anything yet about a possible suspension.
EDIT: Baez back in lineup.
RE: REDS JULY GAMES THREAD - TheLeonardLeap - 07-27-2021
Breaking: Nick Castellanos to serve a 10 game suspension when he comes off the IL for inciting Baez to act like a twat.

I never thought Votto would look this good again.

Me either, he's tearing it up.
RE: REDS JULY GAMES THREAD - Nicomo Cosca - 07-27-2021
At 37 years old, Joey Votto of the @Reds is the oldest NL player to homer in 4 straight games since Barry Bonds did it at age 41 in 2005.

Please let this be Suarez' wake up party.
Hard to believe that he has 54 RBI(Votto 53 RBI with a few weeks missed)
Nice to see Farmer get his average up to .245.

Yes please
2 or 3 games ago I heard them say something like - up to this point in the season, Suarez has the next to the lowest batting average ever in the history of MLB among everyday players.
His 123 strikeouts, there's only 3 players with more than him, 54 RBI's and 19 HR's is just really weird.

(Coming into today's game.)
Suarez has had 182 PA with runners on base
Votto has had only 139
Suarez is hitting .148 with runners on base
Votto is hitting .281
It's just a product of more opportunity, not quality performance. It's why RBI isn't a good stat to gauge individual success.

It just kinda defies logic that a player can't hit a bull in the ass with a bass fiddle, batting .172 or whatever ? strikes out constantly, and has 54 RBI's in late July.

A Red needed to charge out of the dugout. Then Baez would have been suspended.
RE: REDS JULY GAMES THREAD - cinci4life - 07-28-2021
Cessa with a perfect inning in his Reds debut.

Repped.
Mahle with 6 strong innings when he wasn't at his best. He had a few nice defensive plays help him out. Hopefully Cessa shows he's worthy of the addition to their squad. Nice 1,2,3 inning to get his Reds career started.
I saw that the Tigers beat the Twins 17-14. I love looking at the box scores of games like these. The only starter to not get a hit was #9 hitter Andrelton Simmons, 0-4. The Tigers gave up 14 runs on 7 home runs, including 4 bombs in the 8th inning to pull the Twins within a run at 13-12, and the Twins gave up 17 runs and no home runs.

Problem is with how MLB seems to be toward Reds players this year that player would get the suspension and not Baez.
Votto with another 2 homer night and 7 in the last 5 games. Only the 3rd Red to ever do that. He is seriously locked in right now!
RE: REDS JULY GAMES THREAD - Nicomo Cosca - 07-29-2021
Pretty good company.
Joey Votto of the @Reds is the second NL player in the modern era to homer in his first plate appearance in 4 straight games.

He joins Willie Mays, who did so in 5 straight games from June 21-25, 1954.
