I was chatting with a friend today and he asked me "What's up with these Reds?" "Wow!"

I said...well, the answer to that is EASY, and 5 fold.
1. The young pitching is getting better, Disco is back, and Homer is on the shelf again, which REALLY helps the W-L record.
2. The young guys like Peraza are starting to come around.
3. Bryan Price is GONE!
4. Bryan Price is GONE!
5. Bryan Price is GONE!

He ABSOLUTELY has to be traded.
Not this season if the Reds keep winning, but for sure at the end of the season.
For 1, Senzel is the future 3rd baseman, Suarez is the future SS, and Peraza is the future 2B.
There is just no room for Scooter. Plus he is going to demand a big contract.

I wish he wouldnt choke up right away in every AB. Seems like with a little lost power from age he just can't afford the loss of leverage. Lots of warning track power this year.

Votto is 4 for 27 and has not been right since Atlanta. He was k'd there and has been doubting the strike zone since. The ejection and the Kratz incident were symptoms of this having begun. He will right the ship soon enough.

While I'm sure Jim Day is a fine person, when hanging out at the Reds Live set he comes across as trying "too hard" to "not" seem conceded.
When he speaks to the fans around the Reds Live set, he just seems to have a "I'm better than you" feel about him.

But the reason for this post...is to say he is in no way shape or form qualified to do the Reds play by play on tv.
He doesn't know baseball, I don't know if he even called any games in the minors, and Chris Welsh has to correct him multiple times every night.
I just don't enjoy listening to him at all. I rather have Thom.

No idea why he does it, to the extent or frequency. I don't think he's lost enough bat speed he has to.

I've actually been shocked he's managed the HR numbers he has the last few years, but he does seem to know just how far those GABP fences are.

Unless the Reds go on a CRAZY winning streak, and are not sellers at the deadline, David Hernandez will for sure be dealt in my opinion.

On a different note, no need to worry about Matt Davidson really, he only hits home runs at home and Kansas City for some reason. lol

If it's a 98mph fastball, then yes a fastball on the black at the knees is a great pitch.
But Hernandez throw's 88 not 98.
Definitely not a great pitch in that situation.
He was barely getting a piece of the breaking ball and he was swinging at everything.

Agree, RL Fanatic is probably correct as far as Day having any experience calling games, he was a sports guy on local news before getting involved with the Reds TV but at least he seems to be enjoying himself unlike Thom...and he is quite a bit better than the Bench/Hume duo back in the day.
