4 @ Cubs 2-2
3 @ Mets 1-2
4 @ Phillies 2-2

I'll say we go 5-6. 6-5 is best-case IMO. Gonna be a tough trip.

Re: Predictions for the upcoming 11-game road trip....

EDIT: I'll go with 7-4 also

Cubs 4: 3-1 (should be pretty locked)
Mets 3: 2-1 (Should be a pretty good sereis)
Phillies 4: 2-2 (yep)

Is Travis Wood going to make 3 of the 11 starts? I suppose it depends on how he does against the Cubs. Volquez looks ready to rock-n-roll.

That is the wild card right there, it depends on when he comes back and what he does when he gets here.

Tough road trip. I'll take a 6-5 trip or a 5-6 trip. Anything more than that is awesome.

Re: Predictions for the upcoming 11-game road trip....

Volquez threw 90 pitches yesterday. I can't see the REDS bringing him up before the All-Star Break.

First let's see how his arm handles consecutive 100+ pitch efforts in the minors.

I hope Travis Wood does get 3 starts. 3 Starts would give us a nice look at him.

You think we'll go 0-1-2 in the series, not winning a single one of them? This isn't a West Coast trip.

I truly think this team has turned it around. We should take 3 of 4 against the Cubs.

I'm a pessimist. I think the Colts are missing the playoffs every year, I never pick Ohio State to win the Big Ten. Just how my mind works.

That's fine. At least I know where you're coming from. I'll adjust accordingly.

Ditto. I'm hoping more for 6-5. Beyond that is gravy.

That's the scenario I think this team is capable based on how they are playing right now.

Utley should still be out for all of that Philly series, too.
