Re: Cardinals @ Reds: 6/10/08
All these kudos to the Cards are great and I disliked Bailey's performance as much as anyone.

But the Reds consistently fail to score runs against new pitchers and back of the rotation pitchers.

Early this year it seemed like the team was facing aces every day. The year started against Webb and Haren. Followed by other star pitchers. Reds had some problems with them.

But there is no excuse for a major league team to be flailing against the AA guy at Florida and now this guy Boggs, among others. Yes, Hairston and Kepp were both lost, but other teams have injuries too.

If the Reds can't hit Mitchell Boggs and Ryan Tucker and Phil Dumatrait, they are going no place. Fast.

One of the best hopes of this team producing anything approaching consistent offense the remainder of this season is getting Keppinger back soon, and pairing him with Bruce atop the order *everyday* from that point forward. A few OBP machine tabble setters will do wonders for the 3-6 portions of the lineup (and if we could only get Dunn moved to #3 in the process, we might actually be in business).

Re: Cardinals @ Reds: 6/10/08
It's sad to see how bad the Reds look in comparison to a really first-rate organization like the Cardinals. We've just become a laughing-stock, perennial losers, not even competitive, loaded up with a lot of mediocre players that we incredibly overvalue and prospects who really aren't prospects.

Yeah, that parts not really true.

Philips has a little bit of Aaron Boone disease: a 30 hr guy who swings like a 50 hr guy. Scout him correctly you'll get a grounder to short every at bat.

They played a better team and they had a bd pitcher on the mound.

That'll kill emotion.

No game thread would be complete without noting the incompetence of Corey Patterson. Good night all.
