[WrongVerb]

I like Suarez batting second.

[Tracy Jones]

Let's hope that Timothy Adelman has a good game, and that William Hamilton, Ryan Gennett, and Joeseph Votto supplement Timothy Adelman's pitching with fine ball batting.

[Tom Servo]

Votto! :jump:

1-0 Redlegs

I am tired of managers raising their hand and saying, "waitaminute", after every play.

[Buckeye33]

He gone!

[Tom Servo]

Gordon had a hustle double but the dumb "pop up" rule comes into play as the Reds challenge and he's out. I'll take it.

The top five reasons MLB hates the Reds:

One of these is for good reason.

[Tom Servo]

I'm not certain but I feel like Adleman's deli days ended once he got the callup last year.

He did last off-season

[Tom Servo]

Two out walk for Billy and Geno put a charge into one but not quite enough.

[Tom Servo]

Adleman was rolling along nicely but Gordon singled with two outs, stole second, and now a walk to Stanton.

[Tom Servo]

Yelich 3 run HR. Great.

3-1 Miami.

[Big Klu]

Well, who didn't see that coming?

[lnn6574]

Nice 0-2 pitch.

[PutPeteIn]

This team gives up more 0-2 hits than any Reds team I can remember.
Roll it up there for Pete's sake ...
Morons.

[Tom Servo]

Adleman imploding, another walk.

[Wolves198921]

:laugh:
Good lord I want to hit against our pitchers

[Tony Cloninger]

I agree. Terrible 0-2 pitch. You can't throw it high. Bounce it. No. The Reds needs 15 pitchers on their staff.

[TheBigLebowski]

I live down here in FL so I've been able to watch all these games (Marlins broadcast in Gainesville).

First look I've had at them in the 2nd half. Not quite the treat I thought it would be.

[Tony Cloninger]

This Marlins pitcher is no Phi Betta Kappa either.

[WVRedsFan]

Duvall is warming up. Kivlehan has not

[Tom Servo]

Duvall homered to make it a 3-2 game but that's it for the inning.

[TheBigLebowski]

Marlins do have a nice lineup. Imagine this team with a rotation anchored by the late Jose Fernandéz and one more decent arm. Would run away with their division.

[Tracy Jones]

One of these is for good reason.

Scooter? He gets a bad rap.

[Tom Servo]

Nah they'd still be behind Washington, but they might be in the wild card mix. But that was the case last year as well and their big deadline move was Andrew Cashner. And the offseason moves were Volquez and Straily. They lack both the prospects and/or the willingness to spend big money to legitimately put together a strong rotation.

[Tom Servo]

Adleman with a Straily inning, relying on the defense to track down hard hit fly balls.

Not quite. Washington is that good.

Ah, forgot Wash. They wouldn't surpass them.

And their ownership is a well-documented disaster.

[Wonderful Monds]

Did Price's dumb ass seriously hit Kivlehan 5th again tonight?

Fire him (out of a cannon)

[Big Klu]

Personally, I would have had Mesoraco 5th and Kivlehan 7th.

Personally, I would have had Mesoraco 5th and Kivlehan 7th.So would any sane person.

Well who else then? Devin has sucked even worse. Don't care what he has done he's not even hitting goid enough to hit higher than Peraza. The problem is 3 catchers means someone like Winker even with a LH pitching or Elizardo? Who's killing it in AAA and can play OF is not up here to help and play against a LH.

[Tom Servo]

Devin has sucked even worse.
Uh no? His numbers this year are better than Kivlehan's and even if they weren't he's still the better hitter.

I'd rather see Peraza get more ABs than Kivlehan.

- - - Updated - - -

Walk, single, 2 run double by Stanton for the Fish.

5-2 Miami

[Big Klu]

As I said earlier, who didn't see that coming?

[PutPeteIn]

The Cardinal sin of walking the pitcher to start an inn.
Adleman is the absolute pits.

[Tony Cloninger]

Uh no? His numbers this year are better than Kivlehan's and even if they weren't he's still the better hitter.

I'd rather see Peraza get more ABs than Kivlehan.


Up until his last DL stint yes. Ever since he has been back he's barely registered any semblance of productivity. I agree with your 2nd part about Peraza of course.

[TheBigLebowski]

I've seen enough Adelman to know I've seen too much.

[Tom Servo]

6-2 Marlins

[757690]

I'm not certain but I feel like Adleman's deli days ended once he got the callup last year.

If they did, he better hope the deli kept a spot open for him for next year.

[Tom Servo]

Adleman done, Wojo coming in. He spent part of last year in the Miami org but never put on a Marlins uni in the bigs.

[PutPeteIn]

Disco pitched 4 inns of 1 hit 0 run baseball with 6 Ks with fastball at 94-95...zero walks for Dayton.

Rotation will soon be:

Feldman
Disco
Bailey
Castillo
Ramono

Bye bye RobSteve and Adleman.

[Big Klu]

13 pitchers might not be enough.

[Tony Cloninger]

Elizalde or Blandino deserve to be up here over this 3rd catcher. Heck another pitcher even. Whatever. They want to lose or don't care if they do.


It's not like I like Kiev the Russian. He's another mirage of a bench player that Reds have dragged out here for another year. And they stick with him no matter what. But Devin has been useless since his last DL stint.

Of course I am sure he will bust out of it after i wrote all this.

[WVRedsFan]

Clearly, Adleman just doesn't have what it takes to be a MLB starter. 4.1 innings of 6-hut, 6-run ball with 4 walks. ERA of 5.42.

[PutPeteIn]

Another in a long line of soft tossing rejects.

Disco will be up soon as will Feldman.

Feldman is a soft tosser too but some how he gets outs.
Adleman not so much.

[Tom Servo]

Wojo strikes out the two batters he faces in the 5th.

Because I'm praising him it means he'll almost certainly struggle if he stays in the game but I maintain the Reds pulled the plug too early on giving Wojo starts just because the best team in the NL (Dodgers) ate his lunch in back to back starts. He's got better stuff and more potential than Adleman.

[WVRedsFan]

Wojo gets the side retired. He has only 2 pitches, but he might be a good reliever. What say ye?

King of the Long relievers. King of the Long relievers.

[membengal]

The amazing thing is, as bad as the reds have been this month, they still would pick fourth if the season ended tonight. That's some impressive incompetence from the giants and white Sox in particular .

[Big Klu]

Stuart Turner replaces Mesoraco behind the plate.

[Tom Servo]

I think the Giants are gonna play better eventually. Phillies too but they dug themselves a gigantic enough hole that they are still the odds on favorites. White Sox are definitely all in on the tank.

[BCubb2003]

If Wojo has become an excellent long-relief guy, maybe leave him there. This team will need one.

[Big Klu]

The amazing thing is, as bad as the reds have been this month, they still would pick fourth if the season ended tonight. That's some impressive incompetence from the giants and white Sox in particular .

I have them third, but I only look at the loss column. However, they have been closing fast on the Giants and Phillies.

[Tom Servo]

Scoreless 6th for Wojo

[Tom Servo]

He's not awful but Conley had a 5.62 ERA coming into tonight, and the Reds are putting up little resistance outside of the two HRs. Suarez has hit the ball hard though with no result.

[WVRedsFan]

I know about bench players being bench players for a reason, but those at bats by Turner and Alcantara were some of the worst I've ever seen. BTW, while is Rocco out?

[Tom Servo]

Kevin "Rusty" Shackelford in the 7th.

[Tom Servo]

Zach Buchanan‏ said no injury announced. It did look like he took one of the face mask earlier though, could have been precautionary.

[Big Klu]

FS1 announcers speculated that Mesoraco might be going through concussion protocol after taking a foul ball off the mask.

[Tom Servo]

7-2 Marlins following a two out double and single

[WVRedsFan]

Thanks

[Big Klu]

Thanks Klu and Tom. I'm only about half watching this mess.

Thanks

Same here.

[Tom Servo]

Hamilton infield single, Suarez GIDP, Votto bloop single. Conley gets pulled.

[membengal]

I look at winning percentage, but , yeah, putting ourselves right there. But taking longer to get into top two than you would think given how terrible they are playing. On pace for 65 wins at this point.
Blech.

[BCubb2003]

FS1 announcers speculated that Mesoraco might be going through concussion protocol after taking a foul ball off the mask.

Maybe he was traded for Dee Gordon.

[Tony Cloninger]

Maybe baseball has a cocaine problem but it might be a lot more enjoyable if I did while watching them this year.

[Ron Madden]

Kivlehan doubles to open the 9th.

[Big Klu]

Kivlehan burns Stanton for a double to lead off the ninth.

[Tom Servo]

7-3 game with 2 outs in the 9th

[Tony Cloninger]

See Kiev shows everyone who doubted me why he batted 5th. A walk and a double. I'm king of this thread!

[Tom Servo]

Peraza walk!!!

[Big Klu]

Peraza walks on four pitches?!

Mattingly pulls him.

[GADawg]

Peraza walks on four pitches?!

Mattingly pulls him.

Clearly he deserves the heave ho

[Tony Cloninger]

I would consider PH Lorenzen instead of Schelber or am I wrong?

[Tom Servo]

We're still bad. Reds lose their 6th straight. 2-14 since the All-Star Break.

[Big Klu]

I would consider PH Lorenzen instead of Schelber or am I wrong?

No, you have to go with Schebler here.

[WVRedsFan]

Adleman's lst 7 starts. 35.2 IP, 30 runs (7.57 ERA), 11 runs, 43 hits. Why?

[GADawg]

We're still bad. Reds lose their 6th straight. 2-14 since the All-Star Break.

We should pick a secondary team and invade take over their message board....probably the only way we're gonna be good again anytime soon

[Big Klu]

Tonight's Joe Nuxhall Star of the Game is Marlins lefty Adam Conley, who pitched 7⅔ innings allowing two runs on five hits with 7 K's to earn the win.

[Big Klu]

On pace for 64-98.

[JFLegal]

Reds fan living in SoFla now. Marlins Park was better than I expected tonight. Our Reds were not.

[Ron Madden]

MESORACO HURTS KNEE

Reds catcher Devin Mesoraco left the game before the bottom of the sixth inning because of a sore right knee, and he was replaced by Stuart Turner. Manager Bryan Price removed Mesoraco as a precaution and said he wouldn't start him on Sunday as planned.
During a rehab assignment earlier this season, Mesoraco's same knee bent when a runner slid into him while he covered third base during a rundown. But he's not sure what caused it to hurt again.

"I don't recall a certain play I did up in New York or anything [in the previous series]," Mesoraco said. "It seemed to bother me. I thought today it would be fine. Warming up wasn't an issue. Then once I got out there in the game, I felt it."
