Reds tidbits (2010 season)

and that's why I question Juan Francisco coming up. You are going to expose him and ruin his trade value. Dude makes Brandon Phillips look like Scott Hatteberg in terms of plate discipline.

Oh well, tough loss. At least Meek and Hanrahan will be tired and maybe not available tomorrow. The rest of the Pirates bullpen is horrible. Two out of three on the road, even from the pitiful Pirates, would still be good.

Of course it will be tough going forward when 2/3's of the outfield is completely worthless. Maybe Dickerson can come up and get hot for a month or two. Heck, even if he hits his average stats it's still better than the crap Bruce is bringing.

Would our organization be too proud to resign Adam Dunn? If he's on the waiver wire and we need an outfielder, why not Dunn. He's been at first all season but really, I'd take his mediocre to bad defense to give another huge bat and protection to the middle of our lineup. Send Bruce somewhere or keep him on the bench for defensive substitutions at the end of the game and get Dunn back over here! Marty can go fuck himself I want to win this damn division!

Sadly, I agree... Time for the Donkey to return to Cincinnati. :biggrin:

Dickerson continued his hot ways in Columbus last night. Led off with a bomb to right center. Got on with a bunt single. Walked once. Drove in the winning run in the 12th with a third hit.

Alonso smoked a couple balls for doubles, one into each gap.

Color me unimpressed by Frazier and Cozart.

I think the Huntington Park radar gun was mis-calibrated, because two of Chapman's pitches rang up at 103. Two others were at 101. Regardless, that's fucking gas.

I've heard of Chapman being clocked at 102 before. I don't know if that was by scouts or on a stadium gun. The stadium guns probably tend to inflate things a bit for the fans' entertainment.

and it wasn't even close. Of course the baserunning boner of the game goes to Nix. Bases loaded, 0 outs, and is thrown out trying to advance to 2nd on a fly ball. It made no sense. Getting to 2nd there would have simply opened up a base for the Pirates to walk Janish to get to Cueto.

Francisco has had a nice game though.

why are the reds so bad as a team running the bases? they make more mistakes then my 10 year old son's team did this summer.
