Reds back to 6 below .500 now, it's hard to follow the bouncing ball of this, but I think it is 6 below again.
Reds need to regroup and fast.
As for news on here that Wood has more injuries, that is kind of why Dodgers traded him. Kemp gone and Wood hasn't pitched yet. Well, how much can you expect for Homer Bailey ? They did get Puig. As for Wood, there is an old blues song, " You can't loose what you ain't never had ". That applies to Wood. He has never thrown a pitch for the Reds, so it's hard to miss him. Bailey was second highest paid Red behind Votto, so if Reds got out from under that contract, it was a good move if all Reds got was a bag of popcorn. I see Dodgers dumped Bailey fast. Reds dumped Kemp fast. Wood injured as he was with Dodgers. Puig only one playing for Reds or Dodgers in this trade.
Better luck this weekend. GO REDS.
Homer’s last 3 starts 19 IP and 1 ER. I think that’s better than any 3 game stretch that any Red starter has had this year and against the DH. His ERA is now 4.61. He’s done better than Kemp or Wood. I’m glad that he wasn’t on the team though. I just wish that Wood could have pitched enough to flip for a prospect, oh well. At least the Reds made somewhat of an attempt to compete this year. The roster of hitters take long stretches where they don’t hit, they won’t have a winning team as long as the whole roster is so hot/cold. I was hoping that the warm weather would fix this. I hate musical lineups too! Half of the lineup doesn’t know if they’re starting or where they’re hitting. It’s been a better year but last place is still last place.
