Well, now that I've been wrong about almost everything about the Reds this season so far (except Scooter), nothing personal psych, but your Mehness prediction was pretty darn meh itself.. LOL
Nearly everything I've expected this season from this team has happened exactly the opposite of how I thought it would. When I expected a strong lineup hitting well they came out flatter'n than a pancake. I expected lousy pitching and well...it's been great. When I expected the starting pitching to flounder they've stepped up with shutouts and great starts. When I expected the bullpen to pick up the slack they began looking really sad for a spell. I expected Raisel Iglesias to hold em in every game he pitched he gave up huge leads and homeruns galore and when I expected him to cough up the leads in the shutouts he's sparkled. There's a ton of things I thought would happen or not and nearly all of them have been proven wrong. I can't remember a time I've been so happy to be so wrong so many times in the same season..
