Agreed. The offense has been terrible for a while now. Here's to hoping they get it together and quick.Originally Posted by alloverjr

Reds must have won. Bruce hit second.
Pretty bad??? This offense flat out sucks.
Estrada threw the ball extremely well tonight. Unfortunately, all it took was one misplaced fastball to a leadoff hitter with mad pop. 3 hits for the Reds could have won a game, which has got to say something I suppose.

Just curious. What do they see in Hermida that I don't see? Spring training is not the regular season is it?

Eric Stratton, Rush Chairman. Damn glad to meet ya.
They need a leadaoff hitter in the worst way. And a 5 hole hitter. That lineup of 5-8 tonight reminded me of some of the early 80's clubs.
David DeJesus would be looking nice right about now...
They have a leadoff hitter. He's in AAA. They have a 5 hole hitter. He's hitting leadoff.
Looking nice to Janish, maybe, since he'd have company below the .600 OPS line.
It's only been two games, but he's 1-for-8 since moving to the #2 spot. (Granted, the one hit was a homer.)
Eric Stratton, Rush Chairman. Damn glad to meet ya.
The odds of Sappelt providing what this team needs are not in Cincy's favor. Watching Jay struggle should be a Painful reminder of that.
So would you be advocating sending Bruce down to AAA so he can gain more experience without hurting the big league club?
Too early for that, IMO.
