3 of 4 won’t really make a difference at this point but it would be a fun outcome. Let’s go Alex!

I know I am wishful thinking, but a sweep of both Marlins and Pirates coming up would that put us in striking distance or has the ship sailed?

[Ironman92]

I like this lineup.

Let’s score 12, it’ll be fun

Votto on IL -- O'Grady recalled

[onehand]

I know I am wishful thinking, but a sweep of both Marlins and Pirates coming up would that put us in striking distance or has the ship sailed?

A sweep would make the last 5 weeks fun, but we would have to win 7 more games than the Cards, Cubs, Brewers to get a division win and 7 more games than the Cubs, Brewers, Phillies, Mets, Giants and DBacks to sneak into a wildcard spot. Mathematically possible, but not realistic. Let's just win one today!

[Ron Madden]

Joey Votto to the 10-day injured list, retroactive to Thursday, with a low back strain.
#Reds recall OF Brian O’Grady.

[Ron Madden]

A friend treated me to the game last night, it was a last minute invitation good thing we live close to the ballpark. We got there in time for the first pitch.

My wife and I are going again Tuesday night.

[Big Klu]

Today, the Reds are wearing the 1990 throwbacks. The Reds were 91-71 in 1990, winning the NL West by 5 games over the Dodgers. The Reds defeated the Pirates 4-2 in a very competitive and exciting NLCS, and swept the Athletics 4-0 to claim their fifth World Series Championship. The Reds were managed by Lou Piniella.

On August 18, 1990, the Reds lost to the Pirates 3-1 at Riverfront Stadium. The Reds starting lineup that afternoon:

Barry Larkin ss
Mariano Duncan 2b
Chris Sabo 3b
Eric Davis cf
Glenn Braggs rf
Hal Morris 1b
Billy Hatcher lf
Joe Oliver c
Chris Hammond p

[Ironman92]

Update on Winker?

Votto our for several more games.

Aquino/VanMeter/Ervin should have ample opportunities

[stein1214]

Update on Winker?

Apparently he injured it by sleeping incorrectly.

[JaxRed]

Hopefully we see the Alex Wood we hoped for today.....

[kaldaniels]

Apparently he injured it by sleeping incorrectly.

“Sleeping” huh....

[Ironman92]

Edman owns us

[Red Raindog]

Apparently he injured it by sleeping incorrectly.

bad beds in -- where?

wait that's Rizzo's excuse

[JaxRed]

Hope VanMeter's drop doesn't hurt us.

[Ironman92]

How did that pop out?

I bet his regular glove he holds on to that

[Ron Madden]

Hope VanMeter's drop doesn't hurt us.

No harm done thank goodness

[Ironman92]

Wood looks pretty good

[757690]

Btw, I believe these uniforms are technically from 1990, making them a bit different from the 1976 ones from yesterday. They have an American flag, that the Reds wore in honor of the first Gulf War back then.

[Ironman92]

Not a bad AB by AA

[Big Klu]

OK, my opinions on the 1990 throwback uniforms:

Caps: Very good! The same cap as they wore last night with the 1976 unis. The "C" is a little too large -- I have a 1992 cap (which is identical to what they wore in 1990, except for the MLB logo on the back), and the "C" on it is smaller.

Jerseys: Outstanding! Again, it is very similar to last night's uniform. The only changes are a second red stripe on the cuff of the sleeve, and a slight change in the font of the block numbers. Also, the numbers on the back are slightly larger, and the lettering is slightly smaller than the 1976 version.

Pants: Very good! The Reds added two red stripes down the legs in 1988; otherwise, no change from last night.

Socks: Pretty good. The Reds had relaxed their rule on stirrups by 1990 -- some players even wore the softball-style "2-in-1" socks in '90. But the uniform still looks better with stirrups. The Reds had also relaxed their rule on shoes by 1990, allowing red shoes with white logo.

Overall: Aesthetically very similar to the 1976 BRM uniform, with slight differences. (I do wish they had worn the gray road 1990 uniform today, since the home whites are so similar to the 1976 uniform.) But this uniform is very special to me. I was 20 years old in 1990, and though the BRM holds legendary status in Reds history, the 1990 team was MY team! A lot of special memories...

[Ron Madden]

Looks like Wood shaved his beard off

Pitches better without it. Looks good so far.

[The Operator]

Was that a little swipe Thom took at Votto by saying Josh Hamilton was the single best player he'd ever seen?

[757690]

Watching the Cards broadcast and it warms my heart to learn that Jim Edmonds is just terrible as a color analyst.

[Tadasimha]

Thoughts on the cardinals and their fans:

[JaxRed]

Was that a little swipe Thom took at Votto by saying Josh Hamilton was the single best player he'd ever seen?

No.

[Big Klu]

Five uniform numbers in today's starting lineup were worn in 1990:

#7 -- Eugenio Suarez and Mariano Duncan
#15 -- Nick Senzel and Glenn Braggs
#17 -- Josh VanMeter and Chris Sabo
#40 -- Alex Wood and Jack Armstrong
#44 -- Aristides Aquino and Eric Davis

[Ironman92]

Cards pitcher looks pretty legit

[Tom Servo]

Edman is a pest

[Tadasimha]

Holy single, Edman!

[Ironman92]

Edman again

[stein1214]

Cards pitcher looks pretty legit

Certainly not afraid to pound the strike zone, is he?

[The Operator]

Thom talks about how The Reds have "really worked Goldschmidt over" all year and sets up the 2 run homer.

2-1 bad guys

[Tom Servo]

Crap

[DocRed]

This personal catcher thing is really working well for Wood

[757690]

Marty ripping Commissioner Manfred on the Cards broadcast.

Also pushing for the Reds to resign Jose Iglesias.

Manfred's the Man. The Mighty Quinn.

[Red Raindog]

is that 7 HR in about 20 innings for Wood? -- I think we can see a problem

[The Operator]

Offense making some of the quickest outs you'll ever see.

[Big Klu]

This personal catcher thing is really working well for Wood

I'm not sure if Farmer is catching today because of "personal catcher", or if it's "day game after night game".

[JaxRed]

They need to start working the count or we are looking at a complete game...

[JFLegal]

the reds are consistently one of the worst teams in baseball when it comes to working the count. flaherty has 21 pitches through 2.1 innings. wow.

- - - Updated - - -

farmer up there hacking at the first pitch after the opposing pitcher had only thrown a total of 20 pitches is bad baseball.

[The Operator]

Senzel with a marvelous AB

Gets a 2 out base hit

[JFLegal]

nice job by senzel. works the count, then gets a single.

[Ironman92]

Swinging at the first pitch is fine but man I do t like it the first time through the order unless you’ve timed him out on deck and pitch is in the zone you want.

Suarez mashed a pitch near the middle but others are swinging at pitches on the inner edge or a couple inches in.....that’s not going to get it done

[The Operator]

JVM grounds into the shift.

But at least the made the pitcher work a tad.


Still 2-1 bad guys

[The Operator]

Oh Geno

Air mails a throw and Molina is aboard

[DocRed]

God awful throw by Eugenio

[InsaneinthBrame]

One thing that I noticed with this Reds team it really needs a LH masher in between Suarez and AA

[Big Klu]

That was Votto's fault.

#notelite

[The Operator]

Aye

3-1 bad guys Lane Thomas RBI single

[Tadasimha]

Still got plenty of baseball left - get the 6-4-3 and keep at 'em!

[Redeye fly]

Has the luck and feel of another lazy meek Sunday afternoon for the Reds.

[The Operator]

Botched hit and run

Lane Thomas out at 2nd

[50YrRedsFan]

With all the young kids in the lineup, patience will be hard to find. Reds making mistakes that may be hard to overcome in this one.

[The Operator]

I'm confident Geno will make up for that error

[The Operator]

Thom bursts into "that was Al Gore, right?" in reference to the first internet web page being created in 1990.


Lol shut up Thom

- - - Updated - - -

Carpenter robs Geno

[50YrRedsFan]

I'm confident Geno will make up for that error

The attaboy he received in the first inning has been erased by the ah sh** :evil:

[Ironman92]

Carpenter has more velocity with that Laredo throw

[757690]

What's he ripping Manfred about?

The same. Letting analytics ruin the gene

[The Operator]

Aquino with a very good plate appearance works a walk


If he can consistently lay off those pitches he's gonna be for real

[Ron Madden]

The kid showed good patients there

[Ironman92]

AA two good ABs

[The Operator]

Thom wishes Aquino had more RBI's to be comparable to Eric Davis' 1987 streak

good for marty. i dont know how much i'll like baseball once old school marty is gone.

[The Operator]

Ervin bloop single. Aquino to 3rd

Iglesias bats with 2 out

[Redeye fly]

Was curious to see if Flaherty would throw Aquino another fastball even if he meant walking him in not.

Terrible pitch for Ervin to even swing at but it bloops in for the single.

Glaring difference from the 1990 Reds...facial hair. What would Marge say? :eek:

[JaxRed]

Wonder how much they pay the Davis' and Larkin's to do that coaching.

[The Operator]

Well, at least they made Flaherty work a little this inning

Still 3-1 bad guys

[Ironman92]

Dang

Make sure when a batter is comfortable that you throw him a cream puff and never ever ever back him off the plate or affect his comfort in the box

[kaldaniels]

I wonder how 2yr/16 million looks to Wood each time a ball sails out of the yard.

I’m still hoping to get him at a discount.

Freddy Galvis would have to get a haircut, too. 💈

[The Operator]

Now a walk to Dejong

[RR1971]

I think it’s time for the Reds to put Wood in the bullpen. He just has no future value to the Reds and we need to look at Sims and Gausman. Not sure what is happening with Mahle but he may be back. I guess we could give him a QO and he may take it but with his back issue this year I wouldn’t make that gamble.

[Ironman92]

Don’t blame Senze like that’s a routine catch...that’s the hardest play and one misstep.

He’ll make that catch with more experience out there....but that ball was hit with extra stuff on it. StatCast was probably pretty special on that.

[Ron Madden]

Thanks Molina!

[The Operator]

Neck Tats Molina bails us out by not running hard to 1st

5-1 bad guys after 5

[Ironman92]

Wow...HORRENDOUS play by Senzel

Ridiculous to use that word imo.

[Ironman92]

Haha Molina

[Big Klu]

Thanks Molina!

6-4-3 (not a yessiree, though.)

[TheBigLebowski]

And the march towards a top 5 pick commences.

I’d suggest putting Luis, Trevor and possibly even Sonny on a strict pitch count for the remainder of the year.

[Tom Servo]

And the march towards a top 5 pick commences.

Literally no chance of that happening.

Wood has been a bit of a disappointment this year, to be honest. Sort of like another former Dodger LHP that the Reds picked up in 1987 -- Jerry Reuss.

[kaldaniels]

Super results haven’t shown up yet but that was a nice AB by Winker.

Seeing him do that is what gives me hope.

3rd time with base runners everywhere and couldn’t do much....twice with Suarez

Maybe he’ll get 1 more chance and deliver

God won’t allow the Reds to win in the daytime. That Suarez ball is a foot inside the line at night.

The whole night-day thing this year really is astounding.

How do you figure that to be so?

Damn Suraez is killing them today

He scorched that ball it was just right at the SS

[JaxRed]

Gausman looks skinnier in this uni.

I'm just frustrated I'm tired of the Reds never being able to come back

[adkindo]

Gausman has been good his last 2 outings

[PuffyPig]

thought they said Suarez was like 0 for 7 against that guy? why take him out?

Means very little since It’s small sample size and largely happened when Miller was actually decent.

I read somewhere that they intend to work him as a starter next year.

Dominant inning from Gausman

K's the side

[Tom Servo]

impressive inning for Gausman

[JaxRed]

Gausman throwing the gaus.....

[Rolando]

Hopefully the Reds can put a rally together

It was a really nice play by DeJong.

Agree. I think this might have been a good pickup.

[JaxRed]

I will feel cheated if Aquino doesn't homer today

Reds lead MLB in runs scored in the first inning (100 runs). The second inning they are about #7. But after the 2nd inning, they are a poor to very poor team in scoring. Hard to come back when you can't score late.

come to expect at least 1 :)

is there any logic to why they cans score early but not late?

23 straight scoreless eh?

Wait until he meets Aquino/Ervin/Galvis....they’ll get 3 runs themselves

I jinxed them.

My bad

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.

[malcontent]

Probably already mentioned, but Wood is pitching like he desires a larger ballpark.

I want lefties in the rotation, but I prefer they be effective.

Wondering if the FO sees Gausman as the 5th starter in 2020.

5 K's for Gausman

Thee ridiculous Tommy Edman about to gap one, I’m sure.

I would certainly give him the opportunity in spring training.

[The Operator]

He K's the side again!

Wow

[Ron Madden]

W0W! Helluva Job!

9 pitches 9 strikes

[Redeye fly]

Definition of a small sample size but if he's going to do that maybe keep him in mind for a closer role at some point. Guys that maybe don't get it done as a starter but have the stuff in shorter stints to dominate hitters.

[The Operator]

That was actually an immaculate inning

9 pitches, 9 strikes 3 K's

[adkindo]

If Gausman proves effective as a guy that can go long innings out of the bullpen, then I would not mind leaving him there.....it can be just as effective as a starter to have that guy.

[The Operator]

Iglesias doubles to start things off against Martinez


Come on boys!

[North]

Iggy pops!

[Kingspoint]

C'mon 'boys!

Give it to 'em!

[Ironman92]

Iglesias continues to disappoint

[adkindo]

come on Farmer....take one for the team

[The Operator]

Farmer base hit! Iglesias to 3rd

Tying run comes to the plate

Assuming Reds are wiling to pay him as a reliever. He’s currently at 9 million, just guessing that they may bring him back (if at all) as a starter. Figuring that DJ can help him be more effective there.

[Ironman92]

Work this guy

[adkindo]

nice hit Farmer

[Red Raindog]
