6 innings 3 runs from Homer not a bad start, but with this Reds offense you need to be perfect...

Two hits from Votto, one BB to Bruce. Only thing that surprises me is that they even got two pitches close enough to the K zone to Votto for him to get hits. Get ready for this the rest of the year, RZers. Nobody's going to pitch to Votto or Bruce, and the rest of this lineup cannot beat you.
Cubs go out in order against Arredondo.
Reds Fan Since 1971
Pretty sad when the best part of the whole week was the rain out.
Hugs, smiling, and interactive Twitter accounts, don't mean winning baseball. Until this community understands that we are cursed to relive the madness.
That was a 10 pitch inning for Dempster.
Chapman in to pitch the 8th
The Reds starting lineup needs two lefty hitters (can be platoon guys) who get on base. They also need a righty power hitter for the middle of the order. They also need one decent lefty hitter for the bench. Obviously, switch hitters will do in any of these slots.
This will require making changes at 3B, LF and CF.
It's really that simple and that clear. Actually, it's obvious.
I didn't think this team would embarrass us as fans at all this year. But alas... right here, right now we are a laughing stock.

Contrary to your statement, the writers/outfits who cared enough to state the Reds would win the NL Central do care - and would look at us now and cringe. If any of them "care" to re-evaluate their lists and document the biggest dissapointment of 2012 MLB right here, right now. The Reds are certainly on top 3-4 of that list (PHL, MIA and maybe NYY in the same conversation). That is embarrassing in my book.

Couple of questions.
Did the Reds ever get out of their April team slump?
If so, are they now in a May team slump?
28 batters 101 pitches. 3.6 P/PA today.
