Only two players (Choo and Votto) that know how to hit. The rest are just hackers. And defense is worse than last year.

Check back with us tomorrow when will be World Series contenders again.
Never thought we have been World Series contenders. We are in the same boat as the Braves. Will have a great regular season record, but will struggle to hit come playoff time. Don't have enough players willing to put together a decent at bat.
But when you play guys like Heisey instead of X. Paul you get what you get.
5 and 4 after playing three of the toughest series on schedule
Will take that
Maybe we can add Mes to that list of players that will work a count, but still too early to officially add him.
And after he takes 4 straight balls to get the walk, the next two batters get out on the first pitch. Westbrook was wild during his first start and could have potentially walked a ton of batters today. But we didn't let him.

too soon
I hope the OP isn't a football fan. It would stink to have to wait a week to get this taste out of our mouths.
The Reds play terribly in St Louis. It is what it is.
Really...worse? Where is the statistical analysis/ matrix to prove it? Didn't this team start 5-8 or something like that last year?
