    Fair enough, but saying they are "16th in the league" in runs scored is misleading.

    Overall if we win the series I'm fine. Same if we split 4 game series. It's only when they lose a series or get swept that I get worried. So far this coast trip is going well even if it seems maddening.

    Oh, I'm not arguing mediocre. Another piece could rocket this team to World Series contender. It's an average offense and above average defense. But listen to some of these jokers and you'd think they're lucky to not be 0-162.

    They'll probably lose this game, which, last I checked, happens. But this whole calling it in the sixth inning thing is stupid and it's borderline trolling. This team is perfectly capable of scoring three runs in three innings, and to act like it isn't is silly and embarrassing.

    Whatever happened to cheering? Remember Randy Quaid in Major League 2? Don't be that guy. No one likes that guy, and no one listens to that guy.

    It's not misleading at all. 16th in the MLB in runs. 8th in the NL. In the middle of the pack in both. I listed both. There was no misleading. I couldn't have been more clear.

    Heisey took the first too pitches. Odd.

    Who is saying we're lucky to not be 0-162? Nobody has even come close to saying that. The offense is what is holding this team back though. When it's bad, people will complain.

    Heisey ahead 3-1 in the count. I don't recall seeing a strike, so it's a strange count for him.

    I listed both the majors and the NL, did I not?

    The end times are truly upon us. Heisey walked.
    “I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”

    Iran must have armed those missiles. Heisey walks.
