Reds tidbits (2010 season)

[Dryden]

Per the game recap:

The Reds came into the game leading the league in batting, runs, hits, total bases, RBIs and slugging.

If the pen didn't stink so bad through May this team would have over 50 wins.

Randy Wells is throwing a no hitter.

Middle of 6, 0-0.

 

[Bucknut24]

ugh and now the cubs have bases loaded with 1 out

 

[scott91575]

Only a matter of time before Jordan Smith got rocked. He wasn't any good in the minors, but since he was on the 40 man the Reds thought they would give him a try just in case he is one of those magical pitchers that is no good in the minors but suddenly becomes Cy Young in the majors.

See what I did there.

WOOT WOOT...Reds on the TV here in Iraq...1st game I've seen since opening day.

 

[Mike80]

Votto gets tossed arguing balls and strikes and Thom Brennaman immediately ties it into not getting selected for the All Star game

 

[Tipdogusaf]

Well that wasn't a good start.

 

[Bucknut24]

ugh, not sure why Votto was arguing so much there, looked like a good pitch to me

He is on his way to shove his bat up Charlie Manuel's senile ass.

 

[Mike80]

You'd think if they were going to take the time to interview SFC Smith they would take the time to learn what SFC means

 

[Fungo Squiggly]

Charlie Manuel can fuck himself. That's an absolute joke. T-2nd in HR, t-5th in RBI, 5th in BA, 2nd in OBP, 2nd in SLG, 1st in OPS. Absurd.

 

[Fungo Squiggly]

Beautiful. Nobody covers 2nd on a steal and the throw goes into center, but the runner is out anyways. Fuckin' Cubs.

It is garbage that he isn't on the team BTW. Let me get that out of the way.

The best way to get back at him is to sweep them in Philly which might really start getting the grumbling among Philly fans going.

Getting Manuel fired > Not getting on the ASG roster - right?

Oh, definitely. I'll take a sweep any day of the week over the AS game nomination. I'd still prefer both.

9-3 Reds, playing without Rolen, Votto, and now Hernandez. Tragic!
