    OK, pretty clear you are baiting now. Nothing to apologize for. Moving on.

    I reported your post for violating the unwritten rule of publically talking about the content of private messages. There was a whole thing about this on the board in the early 2000's and while it was before your time, that's certainly no excuse whatsover. I think the vibes from that whole business carried over to the Reds on the field and kind of caused the lost decade.

    This is really turning into a lost year for Bruce. With the injury he's just never been able to get into a rhythm.

    Hope you are wrong. I was really getting excited about his improved walk rate before the injury.

    I worry with cincrazy - sometimes even good players have injury issues and never really get going. Bruce is giving that vibe but then, when he is cold he has always looked hapless. Then suddenly BAM. He's a monster. I sure hope so because the Reds really need him SOON.

    You prefer BP to OPS his current .700 instead of .900? Or maybe are you just talking about D. Or the fact that Votto is currently injured. In any case, I think a .900 OPS bat at 2B would be pretty sweet.

    I just traded him in one of my fantasy baseball $ leagues.

    Therefore, you can expect Jay to catch fire soon.
