Our beloved Reds lost seven in a row to begin a 4-16 stretch where they fell to 20-30 on May 23rd and then they began a 12-3 stretch when swept the Dodgers of all teams. Later, after they won seven in a row, they were 32-33 just 16 days after they were 10 games under .500.
When we started the series to play them, they were the 6th worst team in baseball. You casually ignore that they were 3-7 in their previous 10 before sweeping us. They lost 3 of 4 to the ANGELS. They had lost 6 of their previous 7 series, with their only series win coming against the worst-in-MLB White Sox.
If we can't call that playing a bad team, then there's only like 3 bad teams in all of baseball.
