Re: Reds @ Cubs Sunday 4/2/
I'll take a W any way it can be come back.
Half glass full: we've played like dog crap and are only 2 games under .500]
Half glass empty: we've played like crap, and because we're only 2 games under .500, it will give reason for management to not make moves to better the team
I expect the normal crap back at home. Willie Harris back starting because "he's even more due."
Re: Reds @ Cubs Sunday 4/2/
I'll take it. Feels like we should be a lot worse than 7-9 right now.
Re: Reds @ Cubs Sunday 4/2/
Marshall is the best option at closer. He overwhelms lefthanded hitters, Castro just had a great AB (8 pitches) before he triples. Nice save regardless!
Re: Reds @ Cubs Sunday 4/2/
Great win......now time for all the threads on what Dusty did wrong!!!
Re: Reds @ Cubs Sunday 4/2/
Three wins out of four is always acceptable.

Yes, the magic of DVR. I re-watched it a couple times too. Considering the game situation at the time, that wasn't much of an effort by Stubbs -- and I'm one of the biggest Stubbs homers on this site. He wasn't going to catch it, but he could have probably kept it to a double.

Why not? That ball was catchable, nothing to lose by going for it.
Re: Reds @ Cubs Sunday 4/2/
7 and 9, have not really got the bats going and done with a 10 game trip
Re: Reds @ Cubs Sunday 4/2/
SFO will be a very tough series, but with HOU and CHI coming to town I look to get back to .500 or better with this upcoming homestand
Re: Reds @ Cubs Sunday 4/2/
Looked like 2 pretty even teams in that series
