9/28/2018 Reds vs Buccos

[cumberlandreds]

Last weekend of the season. Even though its been another bad season I still hate to see it all end. Also its a free weekend on MLBTV. But I assume blackout restrictions are still in place.

What is that camera that Hatcher has stuck on top of his helmet?

At the stadium they use it for replays on the scoreboard.

[texasdave]

20 runs in the last 14 games. That ties an all-time club record.

[Tom Servo]

I think it's fair to wonder if Riggleman's refusal to use his bench and instead play the starters every day back in the spring is a notable reason why the offense has been so putrid these last 2-3 weeks.

[Big Klu]

Good to hear George Grande working with Chris Welsh tonight.

[Ron Madden]

Geno!!!

[powersackers]

Right at the 404!

Geno!!!

It's gonna beeeeee gone!

[Ron Madden]

Nice Catch!

[RedlegsFanatic]

Peraza has obviously had the unexpected, outstanding, breakout campaign at the plate in 2018.
But he has a LONG way to go defensively still.

[CaiGuy]

I don't usually say this, but this team needs to be done with Peralta.

[texasdave]

No luck for Wandy tonight. 3 hitters, 3 infield singles. One hard hit, two not.

Can we get a live feed for when he is relieved of his duties?

That will close the book on Thom for 2018. Oy.....

[RedlegsFanatic]

Are you kidding me??
Kang is absolutely, 100%, no questions asked, the Pirates everyday 3rd baseman next season.
For ONLY $3 Million dollars they are expecting 25 & 85 at minimum from Kang if he plays a full season.
Dude can rake.

[RedlegsFanatic]

Great play Scooter!

[CaiGuy]

I don't think they are going to make the playoffs after all.

At least Geno is heating up. ;)

[texasdave]

Plenty of baserunners tonight. Not many crossing the dish.

Reyes fooling nobody. Ervin does not look very proficient out there.

[Baseballdad37]

Well now that we hired a new Developmental Dept we might start seeing our young pitchers succeed! Because right now they are horrible with the exception of one!!!

Ervin is awful!!

[RedlegsFanatic]

I would have Iggy throwing the 9th all weekend no matter the score.
Just to drive the point home what is expected of him in 2019.
In case he doesn't already...

I would try to trade him in the offseason.

[Baseballdad37]

Really Riggleman????? Iglesias pitching????

Ervin is already a good hitter for his age, what is expected of him, and compared to other similar rookies.
But he too also has a ways to go defensively. They can't all be Billy Hamilton or DatDude BP on the defensive side.
Speaking of Billy, if he doesn't win a gold glove this season there is a conspiracy out there somewhere against him. That's all there is to it.
But Ervin is a good ball player. He's just raw and young.
One day Ervin will steal 25 bases and hit 20 HR in a season.
But I seriously doubt it'll be for the Reds.

[Baseballdad37]

Why not?

1) It’s not a save situation
2) he pitched couple days ago, hence he doesn’t need work
3) he’s been not very good!

[RedlegsFanatic]

Weird how Iggy's 94 looks like 99.
Unearned run on his ledger, although it was his error.

[RedlegsFanatic]

The ONLY way I trade Iglaseis is if I am receiving a Gleyber Torres, Guerrero Jr, Tatis Jr, or Jimenez in return.
He would be an all star closer if the Reds were a winning, Playoff team like when Chapman closed.
I could see Iglaseis having Kimbrel type success if he played for Boston. Or similar.

[RedlegsFanatic]

WOW!
5 hit game, double figures in HR! Not to mention the best defensive catcher in the NL...at least.
Kid has carved out a nice major league career for himself.
I would have never dreamed it 5 years ago when the Reds has both Grandal & Mes in the system.

[RedlegsFanatic]

Did you see where CC Sabathia cost himself $500K by throwing at Jesus Sucre?
Idiot.

Our Reds are HORRIBLE.
See you tomorrow.

[Big Klu]

Well, the Reds have to win out to match their record from 2016 & 2017.

[texasdave]

6th straight loss for the Rhinelanders. Started their stretch drive a little late this season. It looks like they are stuck with the 7th selection in 2019 June Draft.

[texasdave]

Congratulations are in order to Tucker Barnhart. Barnhart had a nice month tonight. 3 singles, a triple and a 2-run shot.

[cumberlandreds]

Well, the Reds have to win out to match their record from 2016 & 2017.

Glad to see the rebuild is going so well. :rolleyes:

[CincyDave]

Well at least look at it this way, the Reds did not break a 36 year streak of not losing 100 games.
That's somethin', isn't it?
