It's as if the pitching staff is going to have to toss back to back to back to back to back to....no hitters just to compete in the division much less the league and I'm no longer confident a no hitter is going to be sufficient to win games anymore with the complete lack of hitting. 12 total hits in a 3 game series isn't going to cut it. It wasn't that much better against the Marlins with the wins, but the marlins are an even worse team..
Give em credit though..the best last place pitching staff I can ever remember.
Their team batting average is .1996 after today’s awesome Hama. I guess that it does round up to .200 so I guess that’s something to hang your hat on. Jay Bruce has close to as many HR’s as the Reds players combined. The pitching has probably been good enough to be a .500 team if the offense had been at least mediocre. Something has to give soon!
