Re: 9/23/13 -- Reds vs Mets; Choo's back!
Reds have very gifted players right now.
Hamilton, Chapman, Choo, Votto, Bruce, Latos, Bailey.
Very gifted baseball players. Others too, just listed the most obvious ones.

Yet, here we were in a tie game and posters are claiming we aren't playoff worthy because we are tied.
Give you heads a shake.
For the record, unless we get up 2 games on the Pirates heading into the final series, we still need to win 2 of 3 (due to tie breakers) against the Pirates. So, it's important we keep pace. We fall one behind, we need to sweep them.
All that is well and good, but really we just need to win the game next Tuesday. Now everything to that point is relatively unimportant.

I'd guess about 20 different Reds have HR this year.

Let Bronson walk. See if the Dodgers want BP.

No that loss put the Nats 6 out and clinches playoff spots for the Reds and Pirates

I'd add Marshall and Cueto to your elite list.

Hard to imagine how such a happy Reds fan celebrating an important extra inning game could say such a thing.

We need Choo and another big bat minimum. Too many bats that pitchers are clearly pitching around in order to face because they're bad. I'd like to be able to checkmate a manager or two next season with the offense.

Once in a lifetime pitching staffs make for lots of clear skies.
