I say if we need to then use Arredondo or Simon for relief and Ondrusek to close since they haven't pitched in a few days and rest our "Nasty Boys" for the Pirates.

Hopefully we can get another little burst of runs and that will be an option. I can't see us doing that in a 2-run game, though.

Engberg talking about everything but the game that's going on in front of him.

Nevermind that a month ago you said this team should be 12 games above .500. Now they're 22 games over and you still think it's not good enough.

It's not, we are 3 up and have a weekend series with the Pirates, whom so far this season have pretty well owned us...

Stubbs is finding his way on base a lot.

At some point you are going to realize that we can't control how many games the Pirates are winning except when we play them. We have the best record in the game. That's all I can ask our team. I can't ask them to make the Pirates lose when we aren't playing them.

why its called a division race... not supposed to be a walk in the park for small-medium market teams.

Honestly, I feel bad for you because you must watch these games in utter disgust for the lackluster product the Reds are putting on the field each day

Stubbs makes his way to 3rd without a hit in the inning.
