I think I'm going to get whiplash going back and forth.

[Aronchis]

Probably not as bad as the Whiplash Kellon Winslow II has right now.

Hopefully Milton can earn back some self-respect after his debacle last week.

Yeah, I heard about this through some Brown's fans on the floor. Can't say I was a fan of Winslow, but I do feel for him with the bad luck he's encountered, if you want to call driving a motorcycle through a parking lot at 35 mph bad luck.

Having a helmet on - BUT NOT STRAPPED! - has to be the bonehead play-of-the-day.

Stickied.

Not that we had to worry about it falling off the first page.

Thanks for lineups too. GO REDS!

[RedsIn07]

Pena back in and hopefully Jimenez breaks out of his funk and Milton doesnt give up the long ball

[CTA513]

Hopefully Milton came ready to pitch today. I also hope he took Mileys advice and pitches inside.

Also I think having 2 game threads is not going to help with bandwith.

[CincyRedsFan30]

Hey everyone. Looking forward to a good game tonight, although I wish Freel were in the lineup. He is (4-11) against Carpenter lifetime, and Jimenez hasn't hit well batting as a lefty this year.

[The Baumer]

On the Cardinals Fox Sports channel they interviewed some Reds about the horrid Milwaukee series. Adam Dunn said that the past 4-5 years the Reds have dominated early, and hopefully this year's scuffles will provide some reverse pyschology. Sean Casey just said it was in the past and that the Reds play well at home and are looking to win today. Jason LaRue said basically the same thing as Casey except that they should have won a few of the games on the road trip.

[Aronchis]

This game comes down to Eric Milton and Eric Milton alone(ignore Don Eric if he is saying his "advice" ). If he is going to continue the pitching trend, the Reds have no shot this game without a big offensive effort. Somebody has to stand up, throw up 7-8 innings and make a example to the rest of the downtrodden group.
