We're saving up our hits for the weekend and the postseason. Why waste them on the Mets when the Cards are just going to win out anyhow?

look at the bright side- if the Reds had come back to win we would have been subjected to a bunch of posts putting down all the "negative" posters. At least we're spared that.

The odds are against them in a one-game playoff series in Pittsburgh. Probably only a 40% chance of winning, but that's much better odds than what it was vs the Mets in '95. They had 0% chance that day, as many of us knew before the game started that Leiter was not going to give up a run to the REDS that day.
Beat the odds vs the Pirates and then the playoffs can begin.

Didn't someone post a few days ago that this was a meaningless game...?
If the Pirates end up losing today, it will be.
For now, though, it sucks pretty bad.
We clinched the season series with the Mets Monday. That's all they were looking to do. Now, they are trying to mess up the Pirates and other playoff teams' advance scouting by looking really, really bad at the plate. Genius!look at the bright side- if the Reds had come back to win we would have been subjected to a bunch of posts putting down all the "negative" posters. At least we're spared that.

I think that was Dusty, no?
Here's another bright spot: Don't think we'll get anymore posts saying Billy should be starting in the playoffs over Ludwick.

tx. I flew out for the '95 playoffs, but didn't for the one-game '99. Just switched the numbers.
Good point- We've got the Pirates where we want them.
to me Meaningless means you already got your goal.. I pray Dusty wasnt JUST focused on making the last playoff spot with a 1 game do or die as part of his non winning world Series resume.. just saying!!
Didn't even bother to open the thread. Thought it was a strange title.
