Re: Reds vs. Braves Tuesday 5/22
I think they just get my 94 wins after all. This team is beginning to roll. Offense is still mediocre but with this kinda pitching, a step up from putrid will be sufficient.

Re: Reds vs. Braves Tuesday 5/22
Stars of the game:
3) Stubbs - key outfield assist in an inning where Latos looked vulnerable. 2) Latos - Solid seven-inning effort. 1) Phillips - Two jacks. Need I say more?

That Stubbs assist was huge. That inning could have gotten ugly if not for that play. I'd give a star to Chapman also. As a closer, he is scary good.

Re: Reds vs. Braves Tuesday 5/22
The more Chappy closes, the less people will think of him as a starter. This guy could be Mariano Rivera....dare I say it....he could be better. I also, said this before he was a closer.
Go Reds!!! |

Re: Reds vs. Braves Tuesday 5/22
Anyone else happy to see Votto seething after his last at bat? I've noticed in the past week or so that his intensity is back. That was the one thing I wasn't seeing from him at the start of the year - the anger at bad calls, him being upset with himself at bad swings. That's come back and he's starting to look like the MVP candidate again.

Re: Reds vs. Braves Tuesday 5/22
Always great to be in GABP!!!! Great win by the Reds. Latos was great and the offense did just enough.
This thing is starting to come together! |
