Don't the Reds return home tonight ? I think they do.
That was a long road trip. Reds did well at LA Dodgers, but the road got to them in Chicago.
Reds back in Great American needed. I hope THE FANS show up in good numbers, because Reds Owners need that as much or more than wins.
Reds besides missing injured pitchers, are missing once Rookie Of The Year India, and he is indeed a key Table Setter for The Reds. He gets on base, and the others drive him in. India should not be out long.
Anyway, Reds went on the road. I got bored with them on the road. Time for some REDS IN CINCINNATI.
But BEWARE the Dog Days of August. This is when the air goes out of the bag, fatigue sets in, and those horses who set the pace fall to the back of the pack. 1969, The Cubs were GREAT, but from the All-Star Game on, It was all The Mets.
I'm not looking play-offs as much as some of you. I was thinking have a good team Memorial Day and 4th of July and put Fans in Stands and have first year Reds make MONEY since covid, and REDS have DID THAT....Play-offs would be icing on the cake. Then in November, no more Moose or Votto Mega Millions paid out by Reds. THAT will be a WIN right there.
For Now, short term goal....a good Home Series this Weekend for the Fans who actually go to games in Cincy. For TV also, but mostly for the Fans in the Stands.
Hunter Greene looked good in 2 innings of work, and Reds plan on Hunter Greene now pitching some for Louisville Bats rehab. Reds are hoping to get Greene back in August and Lodolo after him, for that Play-Off Push as the horses are racing down the stretch to the finish line in September. Right now, the horses are only 2/3 of the way around the track with 2 months to go....Reds could have Greene, Lodolo, Ashcraft, Abbott, Williams, Lively in September and October Play-Off Run.
