Well that explains about Parra...wth don't they tell us this before the game?

It was on Fay's blog this AM.

Congrats to the Parras.

Because for the majority of the year, he hasn't been even remotely close to a problem on this team.

Yes, he's struggling like crazy right now but people have been criticizing him all year long, even when he was going good.

Did Joey Votto pay you're utility's for a year or something?

Woa.....slowmo jiggle cam there with Adams.

I'm starting to wonder if Votto has an eyesight problem. Even on good pitches to hit he seems to be fouling them off a lot lately. Is it fatigue or is he not seeing the ball well?

When You Are A Great Player, Tbe ExpeCtations Are Always Huge, Padticularly In A Pennant Race. The Bar Is High, And It Should be.

And the really great ones rise to the occassion.

Freese motors one. 3-1. Okay. I believe in Cingrani. But I'd also like to see us tack on a few...or many.

Nope, my cable bill actually.

I work for DP&L so I already get a nice discount on my electric bill.

Ya, I meant yesterday when everyone was wondering where he was.

Cingrani will give up homers. Key is to keep men off base so they are solos. So far tonight, so good.

You're seriously comparing the criticism Joey gets with the criticism Baker gets? And where is this "Votto is the worst" crowd. Certainly not around here except for an isolated troll now and then.

No I definitely didn't mean they are on equal levels. I just simply meant everything seems to be painted as extreme around here lately. You said you felt like you got beat up for being a little critical of Votto and I was saying you're probably right and it is wrong.

Exactly.

I'll agree with that.

But often times babies don't adhere to a nice and neat schedule. Might have been a last minute thing. And maybe they wanted to make sure mom and baby Parra were all healthy and happy before saying anything.
