Today is the half way point of the season.
#7
They've consistently done exactly the opposite of everything I've expected them to do all season.
Just when I think they're done for the season they turn things on. Just when I expect them to break things open and go on a 10 game winning streak they lose 2 in a row. Just when I expect the starting pitching to fall apart they get a real gem by [Insert starter] and just when I expect someone to strike out or hit into a double play they score run(s). I thought the bullpen was done for and yet yesterday they shut down the Brewers..
It's been both an exciting season and infuriating at the same time..  It's why I love following the Reds, win, lose or draw.. 
About the only thing they did that I expected was to get no-hit earlier in the season.. I expected a few more by now.. I'm glad to be not disappointed..errr, glad they've only been no-hit just once.. Another thing I kind of expected was Scooter not hitting much.. He'll likely turn things on at some point, but I don't expect it soon.. I hope to be wrong.
