I just can't stay away from RedsZone. As a group, they do a pretty good job of aggregating Reds-related rumors. The problem is, they follow up those rumors with the most fucking retarded statements or ideas, like...

Trading Bruce, Stubbs, Corcino and Cingrani for Choo.
Saying that Joey Votto and his contract are a millstone hanging around the franchise's neck.
Saying that Billy Hamilton has "just a little more speed" than Jacoby Ellsbury.

Yeah, I refuse to post there. Just way too many fights over completely idiotic statements. Of course the Bengals board is actually worse.

I think there are too few fights. They'll spend days and days and many thousands of words arguing over what it means to be and "ace", but let many other insane statements slide. It doesn't help either that any opinion that doesn't include a decimal point is considered invalid.

Well, that was pertaining to me. I did post over there years ago, but I simply couldn't let the asinine statements slide. So when I say too many fights over idiotic statements, I was talking about the fact I got into too many fights over idiotic statements.

Gotcha.

I'd probably get banned if they gave me real access.

I'm really impressed by the way guys are starting to approach their at bats. A lot of opposite field hits lately, not so much trying to pull every pitch. It sows by how many hits they are getting.

Only on the Cincinnati Reds, with Duhsty Baker, could Miguel Cairo get a start in this league this year. His last 5 at bats have been terrible.

No matter Reds up 3-0 after 1. We'll take it all day baby.

Leake is all over the corners but the ump is a little smaller in his zone.

He needs to just keep at it and not give in to the hitters here.

Damn. Only one run but bases still loaded.


Tough inning for Leake there. Nickel and dimed him. Tie ballgame at the moment.

Wheels have fallen off now. When he throws a strike, they hit it. Otherwise they walk. Brutal. Here comes the fat man and its over for Leake tonight. Ughh

Appears the Reds never quite made it back from Colorado. These pitchers look worse than any I've seen so far this year. Now we just need Bill Bray to come in and throw one over the backstop.
