    Gawd I hope that Lohse mojo is still working.

    Somebody sprinkled something on that guy.

    Don't know what it is, but I hope it lasts.

    That's what I'm hoping too. The guy has been great so far, but I've been conditioned to believe impending doom happens to every Reds pitcher that has been historically disappointing. I still hold my breath every time Milton starts as well, even though he's been significantly better than last year.

    The playoffs might be made or lost based on the performance of Lohse and whoever the #5 starter ends up being.

    This is the lineup now for sometime vs. a RH starter.

    Last night we saw our LH starter lineup.

    Other than the switch of catchers, and rest for starters, I would expect this the rest of the year.

    What?

    You mean they aren't going to call up Johnny Bench's half brothers stepson or Don Gullets horse doctors son who played class A ball?

    Darn...... I miss Marge.

    Good lineup by Narron (although I still prefer Dunn ahead of Griffey). The Reds should crush Hirsh tonight...

    Rotoworld reporting Meche scratched from his start meaning his likely about to be traded.

    We're guessing that Meche wouldn't have made it to any National League team on waivers, so if he's being dealt, it's probably to an AL contender

    Great lineup (though I hope our luck improves over past "great" lineups) and Go Reds! With Shawn Green getting traded from the Dbacks...is that a sign that they are throwing in the towel? I have not heard Green's name much this year though....

    Am I the only person to think this statement makes no sense?

    Wouldn't NL contenders have a chance to claim him before AL ones? Most NL contenders have worse reocrds then AL ones.
