#1. Good heads up for OP starting this July thread
#2. Look, some players are still rusty as they would be if it was April. I know announcers say they don't have time to be in 60 game season, but they are. No way anybody is in regular July form.
#3. Manager Bell still getting players in to see what he has. Even though 60 game season, he still has to do that. I'm not sure Davidson is our best extra bat to be DH, for example. We might have better hitters than that on the bench. The Japanese player or Van Meter or Winker. ADD ON : News is Davidson tested positive for Covid, so all the best to him. Aquino recalled, and I think it's stupid not to get Aquino some at bats after he was NL Player of the Month last August. Don't have that opening game line-up set in stone for all 2020. There might be magic in some bats not in opening day start.
#4. WIN THE SERIES. Stephenson and Iglesias out of Bullpen blew Saturday Game. It's way too early to give up on Iglesias though. See #2......Reds can't be losing many series in a 60 game season though. Get after Tigers Sunday and WIN FIRST SERIES of SEASON.
So that's it. Big Game Sunday in this sprint to play-offs. Bauer on the mound. WIN THE SERIES.
Monday Reds start selling the Fan Cut Out images. I'm too cheap to go the 75 bucks to maybe see my face in the stands, but I watched Thursday Dodgers game, and I loved the cut out fans in the stands more than boring empty seats of Washington. Once Reds get those in, Dodgers showed it looks more like baseball. The cut out fans more fun than empty seats. I want to see a foul ball really tag one like throwing the ball at a carnival. They aren't alive, so why not laugh at a foul ball taking out a cardboard fan. Reds.com has info on it. If I was to do it. I would be in a Reds shirt, Reds hat, holding a hot dog. The more Reds get those in like Dodgers, the more FUN it will be. Washington seats saying Delta was boring the other night, later Dodger Game Fan Cut Outs were more FUN.
