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.

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!
