Reds Tidbits (2012 Season)

[Jaxbuck]

Put him in left.

Well just in case we think the Reds are the only eternally fucked franchise in baseball....

...that mouth breather at 3rd for the Rockies was a catcher most of minor league career who never hit a lick above the AA level.

Why the fuck you move a guy who hits like a catcher ,and plays the field like a catcher, to 1B/3B and give him PT is beyond me.

 

[Bestbuck36]

You're right though Jax, he's throwing strikes he just doesn't have an out pitch when he needs one.

I can't believe people see this pattern and still think he's going to be something more than a BOR mid 4 ERA journeyman.

In AAA maybe. The way he has pitched this year I would kill for journeyman level.

 

[Bestbuck36]

The more I look at him I think he could be another Scott Sullivan, inning eating long reliever, if he never develops an "out" pitch. Too many pitches for the batters to waste when he gets ahead and can't get em out.

Can't watch the cocksuckers cause of the Regional Fox..get Phillies and WB here

He can't eat innings because he can't have an inning that isn't a 30 pitch, 1.5 WHIP roll of the dice.

 

[Jaxbuck]

The little fucker can hit though.

 

[scott91575]

He may not be able to pitch, but he sure can hit.

 

[Bestbuck36]

Hell of an athlete. He should be one of the first guys off the bench to pinch hit in my opinion. He's lightyears ahead of Ludwick.

 

[Jaxbuck]

Stubbs fails.

I'm fucking shocked.

 

[scott91575]

Guthrie at 40 pitches. Colorado already used a ton of their bullpen last night. Work the count? Fuck no! Swing on that first pitch.

 

[Jaxbuck]

They are going to fuck around, not add any runs on and get beat.

They're getting lucky as shit so far, this game could very well be an ass whipping already.

 

[Bestbuck36]

Heisey with his best Farney impersonation. Sweet try on that one.

 

[Jaxbuck]

Cowboy is to play by play announcing as Drew Stubbs is to hitting a baseball.

Its just fucking painful to witness.

 

[scott91575]

Leake is on pace for about 4 innings. I see Sam LeCure in our future.
