Elly brain fart should be one of the things to bet on in-game.

Stevenson's job is to block those.

Yankees are entitled pos.

Pitching around Judge was also smart. I didn't notice pitching around all-stars too much when Bell was manager. Nice apparent win for the Reds. I thought we were "cooked" (today's parlance, y'all) when Santillan appeared in the 8th. Fraley at the plate with 2 outs? Get your gloves and...

Because Burns isn't an infielder. Larkin is money when an infielder makes a stupid throwing error. I mean it's always because he took an "extra step," but Larkin's on those situations.

They have won 10 of 15, would have been 11 of 15 with Santillan not setting up on Saturday, which apparently is in effect now, consistent with my request. Nice job by Richardson today. The bullpen is not real great in general, but it feels like it's mainly Santillan dragging them down. They...

They are soooo close to being the 3rd best team in the division! They can hang with any team... except the best three in the division. Marge Schott showed the Reds how to win. You don't just wing it with a setup guy who's throwing basically fast batting practice pitches. Gotta lock down the...

I coulda swore Santillan had more than one pitch - splitter? slider? Seems like all he throws are fastballs. His arm is dead from probably too many innings. He got the hold, while Pagan, who picked up his sorry ass, got a blown. That's bullshit.

Elly bomb! That was awesome. That guy, Matz, stood no chance. Pitchers need a big breaking ball to get Elly out and I don't remember Matz throwing anything like that.

Runners left in scoring position, 2-Out - J. Fraley Two outs with a runner on? Oh crap, Fraley's next at the plate. Might as well be 3 outs. I haven't been watching today, but it's so aggravating. Bring Hinds up, send him down and keep him down until he learns to be a professional hitter...

They're such dumb hitters. When the pitcher clearly lost his command in the 4th, fraley came to bat after he worked hard to strike out benson, then walk lux. He hasn't been throwing strikes Jake; use your head an have an eye. The pitcher was clearly exhausted, you got him on the ropes, make him...

It will be mind blowing if they win tomorrow to go 4 over .500 for the first time this season, and possibly leap back into 2nd place.

It turns out all they need is a confidence boost to get a rally going. Other team makes an error, that makes the light bulb go off, "hey if a bunch of us get on base we might actually tie this thing or go ahead." Gotta hope for the best for a 2nd Pagan inning, assuming that's the plan. It's a...

LOL, ah yes Gary Redus & Co. Doug Flynn was probably at 2nd base that year. Dan Driessen. Can't remember anybody else except Bench. That was the first year of Reds suckatude for me. Teachable moments.

I was thinking ~25 years. It went down the toilet as soon as Bob Boone started managing.
