    Reds @ Pirates - Friday 8/19

    Game is in a delay.

    Looks like Dusty has settled on a lineup for now:


    2B-LF-1B-RF-3B-CF-C-SS-P

    The particulars:

    Phillips
    Lewis
    Votto
    Bruce
    Frazier
    Stubbs
    Hanigan
    Janish
    Bailey

    Which Homer will show up tonight? I am counting on Good Homer against the anemic Pirates. Three lefties in a row in the 2-3-4 spots.

    Hanny finally shows more of that power he was looking for at the beginning of the year... 3-2 Reds. Runners on the corners after a Janish double and Bailey safe on a sac bunt.

    And a Phillips 3-run homer! 6-2 with no outs in the top of the fifth.

    And Bailey trying to give the game away....no rhythm at all.....taking forever between pitches. Missing strike zone

    96 pitches through 5. Way too many!

    I am having serious doubts about whether he will ever put it together. He is gonna get some pitching coaches fired in his career.

    I don't care how good his ERA is, Bray cannot be counted on.

    Isn't Chapman supposed to be being groomed as a starter? If so, when will he actually throw two or more innings?

    Like every other area of this team, the bullpen has become a disaster.

    LOL When Dusty doesn't bring in Chapman in a tight spot you guys complain that those are the best situations to use him. When we bring him in for a huge spot and he gets the job done, then his spot in the order comes up you guys complain that we didn't use him for longer.

    Yeah they're all pretty bad right now, well minus Chapman. I don't even think it matters who we bring in, I'm pretty sure they're gonna give up some runs.

    Just got into my hotel room to see all the runs on the scoreboard but I doubt it will be enough for Masset tonight
    The older I get - the better I was

    and yes - I hate the Cardinals (Reds fan since 1958)

    I miss Raisor
