I'd buy that for a dollar.

I said the 6th earlier too. I agree.

I love the positivity especially when I'm just being grumpy.
Re: 7/13/12 - Reds vs Cardinals
Remember how this board wanted Simon sent to A ball when he first came over? Yikes I like his stuff.
Re: 7/13/12 - Reds vs Cardinals
Simon looks good. I wonder if he'd be exposed if he pitched more, or if he'd just be a good high leverage arm.
Re: 7/13/12 - Reds vs Cardinals
Simon is our 3rd nastiest bullpen arm and is used in the 6th. Why not the 8th against righties?
Re: 7/13/12 - Reds vs Cardinals
Cozart and Stubbs retired before Votto comes up. I, for one, am shocked.
Re: 7/13/12 - Reds vs Cardinals
The positive/good inning will have to wait until cozart and Stubbs get their heads out of their rears. Or until they stop making easy outs.
Re: 7/13/12 - Reds vs Cardinals
Well. Votto is 0 for his last 6 if you include the All-Star game. Super slump for him.
Re: 7/13/12 - Reds vs Cardinals
So is Chapman's slider junk?
Santana's changeup?

Hasn't hit many balls hard since he hurt his knee - didn't watch the AS game though.

I'm not sure why you're arguing in such a manner. You've really never heard of "junk" as a compliment? "Man that guy's throwing some junk up there!" It's been used for decades.
Re: 7/13/12 - Reds vs Cardinals
Brandon looks like he's lost a step side to side. He's been missing those with greater frequency. Was hoping the AS break would help, but that's 2 tonight.

I've never heard "junk" used as a positive. Only we should be hitting this junk. Or why can't we hit this junk?
And for those who said junk and garbage weren't synonymous
junk/jəNGk/

Re: 7/13/12 - Reds vs Cardinals
I see dougdirt hiding in the weeds ready to pounce if Simon gives up runs, claiming its due to lack of work.
Good humored ribbing Doug, nothing more.
