This will be not one, not two, not three, not four but FIVE YEARS straight in LAST PLACE. There are 15 teams in the National League. The Reds have a worse record than 13 of those teams and are better than 1 team. When are the putrid results ever gonna end? Every fan sees their city have bad teams here and there, that’s called sports. To have a consistently putrid team should make ownership embarrassed and get off of their asses. Making money is great but does ownership have any pride at all??? If your managing produces 5 straight years of being the worst in your group at what you do, perhaps let someone else represent the city. Why destroy a professional organization just to make money? I’m in a riled up mood tonight, I’m sorry!

Me 2 !

One of the bigger problems with this team has been lack of offensive production, specifically LF and 1B. Two of your four power positions. We've got it from 3B and RF but when the other two are among the worst in the league for starters it puts a big kink in normal production.

Winker has 29 RBI's, tied for 30th place among LF. Votto has 24, he doesn't even register among starting 1Bmen. This team has to get better slugging from the power positions !
