Cincinnati Reds (2025 is our year! Haha thats actually funny)

Elly 0-5 with 3 Ks. Claim an injury and put him on the DL for a few.

I've even benched Elly on my fantasy team which is usually the closest thing to a statistical guarantee of a huge breakout.

Alas, nothing has helped.

Punt this ugly bitch, get healthy and let's see what they can fuck up next year.

For just the fourth time in franchise history, the Reds have lost consecutive games in which they scored nine or more runs.
(Per Reds TV: 2025, 1970 and twice in 1894).

Next time they have 2 outs, need to keep a rally going and it's Elly's turn in the lineup, pinch hit for him! You *know* he'll just strike out, swinging at ball four in the dirt, and let that pitcher off the hook. They had that f'ing guy on the ropes. Thanks again Elly.

Welp now we know where all the right-handed power hitters that should be playing for the reds are (we could use just 1... actually 2). They are on the BJ's.

Didn't any pitcher in the minors that Sal faced ever try throwing him a low and outside breaking ball?

It's that time again....

Very fitting "end to the season." Bases loaded, no outs, season on the line, and your 2 best hitters both strike out.

Elly took 6 pitches and didn't swing once

Besides LF, 1B and DH this team needs veteran leadership.

Pitching is legit. Don’t waste it.

 

[Zem]

Loaded the bases twice that I know of, predictably zero runs. Can't count on a single one of them to come through when needed.

Bunch of losers. Arms spaghetti. Don't know why almost every nervous loser in the major league happens to be on the Reds. It's a head problem, and I don't think these jokers will ever figure it out. I hate this team.

Ell's avg is okay, but he is the last guy I want to see in the batter's box in those situations. I'd rather see Andrew Abbott up there with a bat in his hands.

Without Elly the Reds could well have matched Toronto's 12 and 13 runs in those two games. They could have gone up like 7 or 8-0, not just 5-0 on Wednesday.
