[50YrRedsFan]

Go Reds! Need mor winz.

Eat mor chikn :laugh:

[50YrRedsFan]

It's 3:40 San Diego time, and Bruce is still in the lineup.

[Raisor]

Kemp may be traded to the Braves prior to the game

[WrongVerb]

Kemp may be traded to the Braves prior to the game

Sure looks that way.

Bruce on the other hand...

[Ironman92]

Eat mor chikn :laugh:

Not sure if that's possible lol

[Wolves198921]

Ready for some late night baseball. Glad reds are pitching the ace as they try to win another series. Have yet to lose one series since the all star break!

[Tom Servo]

Man does Cozart look good at the plate.

[paintmered]

What a great AB by Cozy.

[Big Klu]

Well, personally I was more like "Que?"

[Big Klu]

Bruce groundout, 4-3
Duvall foulout, 3F
Phillips groundout, 6-3

[kaldaniels]

I won't miss that grin that seems to occur after Phillips screws up.

(He didn't totally mess up there but he was out. No smiling!) :D

[Ron Madden]

Nice Play by Duvall

[Tom Servo]

Nice grab by Duvall.

[Big Klu]

Wallace foulout, 5F
Amarista lineout, 7L
Rondon K swinging

[Tom Servo]

Disco sharp so far.

[Banshee]

Suarez: double machine!

[Tom Servo]

Eugenio seems to like Petco.

[Ron Madden]

Suarez Doubles down RF line... swingin a hot bat...

[WrongVerb]

I keep loving Suarez more and more. Senzel's going to have his hands full to take 3b away from him in another year or two. (Senzel played 2nd and SS in addition to 3b at Tenn)

[sdwagers]

Suarez Doubles down RF line... swigin a hot bat...
If Suarez can keep going oppo like that.... Look out... He was pulling the ball a ton it seemed when was slumping earlier.

[WrongVerb]

Billy seemed to be having an extended conversation with the ump there. What's up with that?

[Ron Madden]

RBI single for Billy!!!

[WrongVerb]

C'mon Cozart you gotta give BHam a chance to steal there.

[Tom Servo]

Hope the scouts weren't watching that one...

[TheRedScare]

Glad Bruce didn't dive for that, no need to risk injury now. But yikes. Texas scouts here too...

[Ron Madden]

Rosales runs funny

[Big Klu]

Norris lineout to LF, 7L

[Big Klu]

Kemp to Barves now official.

[Tom Servo]

Disco with some beautiful pitches to strike out the first two in the 4th.

[Ironman92]

Glad Bruce didn't dive for that, no need to risk injury now. But yikes. Texas scouts here too...

I'm watching as a baseball fan and not a GM...if he could have caught it by diving, I wish he would have.

His not diving and hideous play of trying to gather the ball likely makes him looks way less trade able as well.

[Big Klu]

Schmipf K swinging
Myers K looking
Wallace flyout to LF, 7

Cincinnati 1

[Ron Madden]

Helluva DP

[Ironman92]

[Big Klu]

DeSclafani flyout to RF, 9

Cincinnati 1

[WrongVerb]

Is it me or has Disco been ahead of every hitter tonight?

TEX scouts in attendance, eh?

[Tom Servo]

Pair of singles by the Dads to start the 5th.

[kaldaniels]

Is it me or has Disco been ahead of every hitter tonight?

TEX scouts in attendance, eh?

Gallo hitting .077 in his first 3 starts. If you beieve in him now is when you squeeze him out of Texas.

[paintmered]

BHam passed up an opportunity to Jim Edmunds that ball. :lol:

[paintmered]

Disco gets out of the 2 on, 0 out jam. :thumbup:

[Big Klu]

Yes, hoping they'll go after Bruce in exchange for Juan Gonzalez's 18 year old son in A ball...Speedy

Mid 6th

[Tom Servo]

Man, Jay has hit some balls deep in these two games but it's Petco.

[Ironman92]

Did Chris just say that Thom was studying up on his sabermetrics after Thom mentioned OPS?

[Ironman92]

I miss honest Jim Day that voices his actual opinions.

[Tom Servo]

I miss honest Jim Day that voices his actual opinions.
Bet he misses being up in the big chair and not being called fat by Thom Brennaman.

[Tom Servo]

Disco gives up his first walk of the night, not ideal to do it to the guy in front of Wil Myers.

[Ironman92]

This spew fest of love by Thom is not easy to listen to. Call the game.

[Tom Servo]

I refuse to believe Francois McGillicuddy is the real name of a real person.

[Tom Servo]

Back to back walks now. Un-Disco like.

[kaldaniels]

I mean the Kemp deal makes some sense from the Padres perspective.

But it's funny to listen to Baghdad Bob (one of the Pad's broadcast crew) try to reason the trade to lay Padres fans on the home broadcast.

[Banshee]

tHom is so irritating. I'm glad his surgery went well and that he's doing OK but I sure wish the reds would move on from the Brenneman's. He's much better doing NFL games imo despite his lack of background in it.

[Tadasimha]

Dig in, Disco - finish him!

nevermind

[Tom Servo]

Walks haunt. Single ties it up at 1.

[Banshee]

88 pitches, where a pitcher starts to really feel good... Really Creeper?

[Tom Servo]

Disco was cruising and now seems all out of sorts.

[Big Klu]

Jankowski groundout 4-3
Schimpf BB
Myers BB
Wallace lineout to RF, 9L
Amarista RBI single to RF, Schimpf scores, Myers to 3rd. Tied 1-1
Amarista steals 2nd
Rondon groundout 1-3

Cincinnati 1
San Diego 1
End 6th

[Big Klu]

88 pitches, where a pitcher starts to really feel good... Really Creeper?

He shouldn't be tired after 88, unless he hasn't pitched in a while. He's starting to get a good workout at that number.

[Tom Servo]

Ahhh no, Welsh dropped a foul ball.

[Ironman92]

He shouldn't be tired after 88, unless he hasn't pitched in a while. He's starting to get a good workout at that number.

Plus it's perfect weather....should add another comfortable eleventy pitches or so

[Big Klu]

Dominguez relieves Friedrich for SD

Duvall groundout 5-3
Phillips groundout 6-3
Suarez groundout 5-3

Cincinnati 1
San Diego 1
Mid 7th

[Ironman92]

Probably not many guys playing now in their 9th season as a non-catcher/pitcher and never having played 100 games in a season

Adam Rosales has though

[Tom Servo]

Disco out, Iglesias in.

Wonder if Disco had some sort of discomfort that last inning.

[Ironman92]

Bad feeling on Iglesias

[Tom Servo]

Double switch, Suarez out and De Jesus in.

[Ironman92]

Nice play by the Jesus

[Tom Servo]

Iggy is so good.

[WrongVerb]

Love the 2 headed 7-8 inning monster that is Iggy/Lorenzen. Slightly more confidence in Iggy, but it doesn't matter. Both are great in that roll.

[Big Klu]

DeJesus replaces Suarez at 3B, batting 9th
Iglesias relieves DeSclafani, batting 7th

Norris groundout 5-3
Rosales K swinging
Ramirez PH for Dominguez

[Tony Cloninger]

Eating more Panera would have helped Disco stay more fresh late in games.

[WrongVerb]

"I'm gonna ice my arm from the inside."

Awesome!

[TheRedScare]

What does Jose Peraza have to do to get so much as a pinch hit appearance?

[Tony Cloninger]

The great rotting of Peraza continues. Boy do I love how Price learned this trait from Baker.

I also think Suarez has improved but he is not the 3B of any future. Senzel is the 3B and when his bat is ready that is what he was drafted for. Suarez will go to SS or 2B.

Depends if Peraza has done his penance though with the Reds stonecutters council.

[Big Klu]

Buchter now pitching for SD

Barnhart foulout, 9F
DeJesus flyout to RF, 9
Hamilton lineout 6L

Mid 8th

[Tom Servo]

I want Iglesias to be able to start again so badly.

[Chuckie]

Iggy is ridiculous.

[Tom Servo]

That was strike 3, ump.

[Chuckie]

He struck out Myers 3x in that AB.

[Ironman92]

Iglesias need strike 5 to get out Myers

I ❤️ Iglesias

[Big Klu]

Schimpf groundout, 1-3

End 8th

[Tom Servo]

That's as dominating a relief outing as I can recall seeing in recent memory, Chapman included.

[Ironman92]

I want Iglesias to be able to start again so badly.

Not sure I do...but would be interested with his current moxy out there. He's just owning the mound

[Ironman92]

Love the 2 headed 7-8 inning monster that is Iggy/Lorenzen. Slightly more confidence in Iggy, but it doesn't matter. Both are great in that roll.

I trust Iggy a good bit more.

[Tony Cloninger]

He could always turn out like Mario did. Mario had arm problems in 1978-79. Went back to the bullpen, although more beacuse of lack of a spot....but I am sure if most of
you were around you would have said NO way LaCoss and Leibrandt deserve the spot over him. But by August of 1980 he was in the rotation for good after some great relief work.

[Kc61]

Rather than debate how Iggy is used, let's just be happy he's back pitching for the team. He's been dynamite of late.

[Tom Servo]

Not sure I do...but would be interested with his current moxy out there. He's just owning the mound

It's all up to his arm and conditioning. If he can't, he can't. But he's shown how good he can be as a starter and now looks to have his stuff back to last year's level.

[Big Klu]

Maurer relieves Buchter for SD

Cozart flyout to LF, 7

I love Iggy. Maybe the smallest debate ever on this site.

[Tadasimha]

When was the last time Iglesias went over two innings?

[Big Klu]

you were around you would have said NO way LaCoss and Leibrandt deserve the spot over him. But by August of 1980 he was in the rotation for good after some great relief work.

I think Jose Rijo was used in a similar manner in 1988.

[Chuckie]

Iggy is the man.

[Ironman92]

This cat pitching the 9th looks just like the guy that pitched in the 7th and 8th

[Chuckie]

Rather than debate how Iggy is used, let's just be happy he's back pitching for the team. He's been dynamite of late.

He should be a starter. Don't run from the debate because you're cool with him being a reliever. ;)

[Big Klu]

When was the last time Iglesias went over two innings?

When was his last start?

[Ironman92]

Horse ****

[Chuckie]

So stupid.

[Ironman92]

Good hustle by Phillips. It didn't work out but I appreciate it

[Chuckie]

Iggy with a big K.

[TheRedScare]

Iglesias is so good

[Ironman92]

I ❤️ him.

If TEX scouts are in attendance, what are the odds that their GM is on the phone right now with Dicketty asking about Iglesias?

[Banshee]

Wow, cat quick and cool by Iglasius on the tough swinging bunt, woohoo!

[Chuckie]

Iggy for Rotation 2017. Vote!

[RedsLvr]

If TEX scouts are in attendance, what are the odds that their GM is on the phone right now with Dicketty asking about Iglesias?


What are the odds Dicketty laughs at any idea of trading Iglesias, like any sane person would?

[Ironman92]

Screw you Greg Gibson...give Padres guy a pitch 3 inches inside but not 4 pitches by Iglesias inside the k zone

[BuckeyeRedleg]

Haven't posted in a long time, but......damn.

Iggy.

[Banshee]

What are the odds Dicketty laughs at any idea of trading Iglesias, like any sane person would?

It better be 100% or he needs to find another job.

Gonna lose this one

His value is high. Trade him for more prospects.

[WrongVerb]

Gotta love a baseball player who looks exactly like I do except I'm white.

[Chuckie]

Dumbo Diaz.

[TheRedScare]

Iglesias dominates for 3 innings then Jumbo loses it on the first batter. Good Ol' Jumbone.

[Big Klu]

JUMBO! now pitching for CIN

Rosales HR to LCF.

San Diego 2
Final(10)

[Tom Servo]

lol Jumbo

lol freaking Adam Roales

[RedsLvr]

His value is high. Trade him for more prospects.

His value is high because he's a young guy with a talented live arm and is controllable. Isn't that exactly what you'd want from a prospect that develops well?

[Ironman92]

Stupid #€£¥€ *#*#* *#*#

[WVRedsFan]

Judgment.

[Tom Servo]

His value is high because he's a young guy with a talented live arm and is controllable. Isn't that exactly what you'd want from a prospect that develops well?
Klu is being sarcastic.

[WrongVerb]

What are the odds Dicketty laughs at any idea of trading Iglesias, like any sane person would?

"Gallo, Ortiz, and Profar. That's a non-negotiable offer."

*sigh*

[Ironman92]

Get your terrible karma out of here Thom

And shut up Chris with your feel good Rosales story. Screw him.

[Big Klu]

On pace for 64-98.

[WVRedsFan]

Jumbo is Hoover, Jr. I wouldn't put him in any close game, especially on the road. The result was obvious.

[lnn6574]

I've seen enough Jumbo to last me a life time.

Yeah, and that should be worth a lotta prospects! ;)

[BluegrassRedleg]

It takes a special kind of ineptitude to give up a bomb to a limp-wrister in Petco.

Then again, it takes a special kind of ineptitude for an organization to keep employing this guy.

[Kc61]

He should be a starter. Don't run from the debate because you're cool with him being a reliever. ;)

As I've told you, I'm cool with Iglesias being on the active roster instead of visiting the dugout with his right arm in a cast.
