Sacrificing a reliever every night would make this team much better.

With this bullpen, they should use binary. They'd win with this line.

Re: How to break the hex on the Reds

Here's how I would break the hex on the REDS.

Remember when you come to the game that kids go to live a couple hours of life they haven't lived and oldsters come to live a couple of hours of life they missed.
