Freakin' Jose Altuve. He needs to stand on a phone book when in the batter's box and still is killing the ball.

Re: Reds vs. Astros Sunday 4/29/12

Latos is hot garbage and the rest of this team is not far behind him. Criminy, did we ever get hosed in that deal.

Re: Reds vs. Astros Sunday 4/29/12

1. Totally inconsistent starting pitching. (Latos is a perfect fit).

2. Inability to hit even the most mediocre right handed pitching (Ryan Ludwick is not the answer).

3. At least the middle relief has improved, but the way Logan and Jose are being run out there, they'll be used up by the end of May.

Hope I'm wrong but it looks like 2011 all over again.

Re: Reds vs. Astros Sunday 4/29/12

I agree that, so far, this team looks more 2011 than 2010. I don't have the answer, but I hope someone finds it before the season's hopes fade away.

Re: Reds vs. Astros Sunday 4/29/12

I'm just getting home and turning on the game, so I don't know how the game has played out other than the score. But my opinion of this team so far is they don't play with a lot of energy or passion.

Mesoraco pinch running for Hanigan. Odd timing there if you ask me.
