When Stephenson returns, that's not a bad nine-man lineup.

[KeefeCato]

Everytime Castillo or Mahle takes the mound for the Reds. I think is this the last time?

Maybe against a lefty.

[Ron Madden]

The Cubs lineup has been added to the original post

[Mitri]

When Stephenson returns, that's not a bad nine-man lineup.

That bottom third is about as bad as it gets in major league baseball, but okay.

[Tony Cloninger]

Almora is one of the worst OF in baseball? For a 7th 8th place hitter he’s looked ok to me.

[Ky Fried Redleg]

Maybe against a lefty.

Correct. I should have added that.

[Kc61]

He said with Stephenson, but ok.

Yeah, when TySteve is back, I could live with


India
Drury

Stephenson
Votto

That's not a bad lineup against a lefty. A lot better than what we've seen at times this season.

I’ll give you that. It’s ok vs. LHP. Outfield defense is good at least.

Tommy Pham is out with lower back stiffness.

[Ironman92]

I hate the Reds organization plate approaches of the last 20 years

[Reds Fanatic]

Castillo starts with a K. 99 MPH

[Reds Fanatic]

This is going to be catchers interference

[KeefeCato]

Is there a more whiney manager in the NL than David Ross?

[Reds Fanatic]

Everytime Castillo or Mahle takes the mound for the Reds. I think is this the last time?

I heard the Yankees among other teams are there scouting tonight

[Ironman92]

The dude in the background behind home plate with the retro Expos hat? Weird, but I love it.

[Ron Madden]

Baseball Reference
@baseball_ref

18 years ago, in a 14 - 6 win over the Expos, David Bell became the seventh player in Phillies history to hit for the cycle. The Philadelphia third baseman joined his grandfather Gus Bell (1951) as the only grandson and grandfather combination to accomplish the feat.

[Reds Fanatic]

Ortega easily steals 2nd

[Ky Fried Redleg]

I hate the Reds organization plate approaches of the last 20 years

I concur 100%. Frustrating year after year.

[Reds Fanatic]

Wow a DP. Not a DP the umps screwed that up

[Ironman92]

No clue what ump was thinking….brain fart

Awful pitch BTW on that silly play

[Reds Fanatic]

Castillos 2nd K ends the inning

[Ron Madden]

No score after 1 inning

[KeefeCato]

Farmer is bad against RHP.

[Reds Fanatic]

Hoerner with a one out hit

[cumberlandreds]

Much better broadcast with Welsh in the booth.

[KeefeCato]

And Whatever is at bat now ��

Yes the road broadcasts are so much better without Larkin

[cumberlandreds]

Scoreless after two.

So, does anyone have any info on the guy who sits behind home plate at every Wrigley game wearing pink hats/glasses and green shirts?

I'd be all for this team swinging at almost every pitch if they all could hit like Clemente.

[Ron Madden]

I hate the Reds organization plate approaches of the last 20 years

This is from the article I posted this morning in the Reds Offense 2022 thread in the ORG forum



Over the last three years, the Reds have restructured the Reds’ front office, aligned the Reds’ scouting vision with their player development vision and sought out more athletic, versatile position players with more well-rounded approaches at the plate.

Since these changes started to take place around 2019, the Reds are seeing the payoff in High-A Dayton and in Double-A Chattanooga with impressive prospects like Matt McLain, Michael Siani, Elly De La Cruz, Allan Cerda, Jose Torres, Jay Allen, Rece Hinds, Austin Hendrick and Mat Nelson.

When you make massive changes to the way you structure your farm system, it takes time for those prospects to trickle up to MLB.

4 Ks for Castillo

[Strikes Out Looking]

What’s wrong with swinging at almost every pitch. It worked great for Roberto Clemente.

They don't swing at every pitch. The wait until there is 2 strikes and then swing at a pitch way out of the strike zone. And the Reds analysts will then tell all of us in the listening audience, it's hard to hit a baseball. This is and has been the Reds way for a long time. Give Donovan Solano another month or so and his .278 career average will be about .220.

[Tony Cloninger]

I'd be all for this team swinging at almost every pitch if they all could hit like Clemente.

The only hitting coach I saw that got players to buy into taking more pitches. Working counts. Was Chris Chambliss.
The issue is not having enough players who do that on their own or know how to. Dunn. Hatteburg. Votto. Winker. Pham. They have the skill and will to do it.

[Reds Fanatic]

5 Ks. 0-0 after 3

[Ron Madden]

Still no score after 3 innings

[durl]

Castillo really buckled down after giving up 2 singles to start the inning. Nice composure to strike out the side.

[Ky Fried Redleg]

[Reds Fanatic]

8 Ks he struck out the side again

[NebraskaRed]

Loved seeing Garcia head to the dugout a full 5 seconds before the ump called strike 3.

[Reds Fanatic]

Krall better be getting a huge return for Castillo

[Ron Madden]

No score going to the top of the 5th inning

[Ironman92]

How closely does that correlate with getting into GABP and the eventual adoption of the Suarez style HR efforts?

I don’t think it does because back before Dusty they were attacking that first pitch because that pitcher is gonna wanna get ahead! Pitchers also want to remain in the big leagues and get outs, so they adapt

[VR]

If they deal Luis, it better be for a frickin haul after tonight.

TONIGHT"S SCOREBOARD STUMPSTER***

Neither the Reds nor Cubs have have had a pitcher lead the league in saves for nearly a quarter of a century. But in the decades of the 70's, 80's , and 90's , there were a total of nine(9) pitchers from either the Reds or Cubs who lead the NL in saves. Six were Reds; three were Cubs . How many can you name ???

[durl]

That's the thing about when two bad teams play each other. They could score 20 runs total or just 2.

I hear he's still trying to decide if he should unretire and come back to the Reds.

Don’t deal with the Yankees or Dodgers. They won’t give you crap for them. They just wait teams out and just buy the player they need later. Don’t trust them at all.

Out?? He looked off the bag and the tag, if there was one, was after Garcia was on the base.

[Ironman92]

Shocked Rod Beck never led the league…wasn’t positive his years with Cubs but had 51 saves with the Cubs in 98 and didn’t lead the league. Myers never did for the Reds, but did the Cubs.

[KeefeCato]

Rod Beck is the other Cub.

I think you're right I went with wild thing. Totally forgot Beck. Think of him as a Giant.

[durl]

He's Safe

No they say he's out

I'm not sure what they saw to reverse the call.

[NebraskaRed]

India is going to end up getting one of those robotic Luke Skywalker hands

[KeefeCato]

Sadly I think we saw India's career year last year. Appears he is always going to be banged up.
Drury doubles him in. 1-0.

[Tom Servo]

Drury duty = driving in runs.

[Ron Madden]

RBI Double for Drury!!!

[Tadasimha]

I'm not sure what they saw to reverse the call.

Home cooking

[Tom Servo]

I like Solano wish he hadn’t missed all that time

[Ron Madden]

Solano RBI Double !!!

[KeefeCato]

I like Solano wish he hadn’t missed all that time

Very small sample but he has even hit RHP. We know he mashes LHP.

[NebraskaRed]

More and more often lately it seems like Votto just isn't seeing the ball well.

[durl]

Farmer swung at 2 pitches in the dirt in the opposite batters box. Fooled BAD.

[KeefeCato]

What Solano is doing is what I thought Asdrubal Cabrera would do last year. Boy was I wrong. He went something like 2-28.

[Ron Madden]

11 k's for Castillo

[NebraskaRed]

Bad luck there

[NebraskaRed]

Garcia to Castillo on the pitchcom: "Uh, don't throw ball 4"

[Ironman92]

Lol runner at 3rd went 15 ft toward dugout and nearly got killed

[KeefeCato]

Great Job Luis. I'm going to miss you. Need more runs. 2 run lead with 3 innings from this bullpen likely won't end well.

[NC Reds]

Great job Castillo.

[NebraskaRed]

That was fantastic. Hopefully Castillo's arm didn't fall off on his way to the dugout

[mhs95_06]

Castillo gets out of the hole he dug for himself with 2 five pitch walks to start the inning!

[malcontent]

Reds dodged a real Bellet there.

[Tadasimha]

Well, got out of that!

[Tom Servo]

certainly feels like letting Luis work out of that was to shine him up to ship him out soon

[Tadasimha]

Not a shining example of a patient at-bat from Max

[NebraskaRed]

Morel isn't so good in center, is he?

[Tom Servo]

no reason why Almora shouldn’t be on third, he messed up

[coryfly]

no reason why Almora shouldn’t be on third, he messed up


Yeah, as soon as the CF turned his head he should have been off and on third pretty easily.

[Ron Madden]

no reason why Almora shouldn’t be on third, he messed up

Yeah, Senzel should've got a double there

[mhs95_06]

Terrible base running by Almora on that single off the wall. He wasn't trying to tag at 1st and go to 2nd on the catch. With that ball out by the wall he has got to get a lot closer to 2B when that ball comes down so he can get to 3rd and the batter to 2B if it isn't caught.

[Tom Servo]

India!! :jump:

5-0 good guys

[coryfly]

Great to see from India. Good to see him show some power and also good to see him hit one hard with his hand.

[Tom Servo]

Who’s stoppin this Reds offense??

[NebraskaRed]

This John Wick guy really came in and blew the game up.

[Ron Madden]

Solano gets another double!!!

[VR]

Happy to see India and Senzel DRIVE the ball this inning…..as they’ve proven they can do. What a stunning difference in this lineup when they both come close to living up to their pedigree.

Castillo shouldn’t make another start as a Red

[mhs95_06]

Bullpen showing signs of a blown save after 2 batters!

[KeefeCato]

Castillo shouldn’t make another start as a Red

Probably just get a bunch of prospects who will never amount to anything. Kinda of like when they gave Cueto away.

[podgejeff_]

What was that defense?

Reds gotta Red.

[mhs95_06]

Outfield ineptness adding to it!

Senzel's leadership in CF is disappointing.

Almora is the best CF, but I think Senzel is not good in corner OF spots and has never played there, or is bad because he has never had the opportunity to learn the corners.

[Ron Madden]

BIG K !!! Reds lead 5-3 going to the 8th

[KeefeCato]

I don't know Drury's contract. If he's not signed for next year, I hope the Reds do it.

Older guy having a career year for half a year. I'm not against signing him. But not for much or no more than 2 years. Big no on a overpay.
He's probably a platoon guy on really good clubs. He may be dealt soon to platoon for a contender.

I'd rather have Senzel's in an awkward position than messing up the CF duties.

[Tony Cloninger]

Oh Bullpen. You came and you took all joy from Reds baseball without asking.

[KeefeCato]

Come on, he's made more good plays out there than bad ones

He is finally showing signs of life last week with the bat.
I pretty much wrote him off. With his luck he will start mashing the ball get hurt and be done for the year.
Yes he messed up in the OF there. But he has been really good out there overall. Zero complaints on his defense.

Senzel did not mess up.

Almora came over from RF and was closest to the ball. At that point, he should have just caught it.

[NebraskaRed]

Wow, another hit for Garcia

[adkindo]

is this his first 3 hit game this year?

[Ron Madden]

Three hits tonight for Garcia!

[KeefeCato]

Wow, another hit for Garcia

The BABIP champ tonight.

[podgejeff_]

That was not a strike.

[OldFashionedRed]

Senzel is a care-free, oft reckless type, but I don't understand why people question his leadership or effort. Kuhnel got his butt handed to him in that inning.

[Ron Madden]

The BABIP champ tonight.

I thought all 3 were hit hard

[KeefeCato]

I thought all 3 were hit hard

They were. I just threw that out. Seems he is due for some luck.

[mhs95_06]

Come on, he's made more good plays out there than bad ones

Sure, but his ratio of good to not so good needs to be quite a bit higher to be a top CF.

[adkindo]

Senzel is a care-free, oft reckless type, but I don't understand why people question his leadership or effort. Kuhnel got his butt handed to him in that inning.

on that specific play....the CF is the QB, Point Guard, etc. of the outfield....the buck stops with him on a mistake like that.....

[Kc61]

Senzel is a care-free, oft reckless type, but I don't understand why people question his leadership or effort. Kuhnel got his butt handed to him in that inning.

Yeah - Almora came into Nick’s territory. Some confusion resulted. This is an indictment on Senzel’s leadership?

Reynolds in for Schrock shows how bad Schrock is in the OF.

[KeefeCato]

Reynolds in for Schrock shows how bad Schrock is in the OF.

Schrock probably would make a good pinch hitter. But with the DH now. The pinch hitter is needed way less.
He belongs in another ERA.

[Kc61]

Leaders aren't reckless and care-free!

Senzel is an aggressive player. On that play, if he was too aggressive there would have been a collision.

Once Almora came into the CF area, he should have just caught the ball.

Both Senzel and Almora are CFers so sometimes they impede each other.

[adkindo]

I would be ok with Drury and Almora sticking around another year or two if the price in right

[Tony Cloninger]

Both OF are at fault. They looked at each other like you wanna take this?

[Roy Tucker]

Warren is wild high a lot.

[mhs95_06]

Some serious slice on that one out to RF. I'd like to have seen what would have happened if all the other Reds OF had a chance to catch that one.

[adkindo]

It’s bad enough that we have to watch this bullpen but now I have to see an advertisement for a Donald Trump silver coin? How about an Andrew Jackson trail of tears commemoration medal.

at least the silver will hold some value.....if it was US currency, it would likely be worth half as much by the time you received

[NebraskaRed]

Each catch Almora has made this inning has looked wild

[OldFashionedRed]

Almora is one of my favorite Reds.

[KeefeCato]

Rockets off Warren. Almora saving him.

[Ironman92]

Almora’s first step is crazy good

[KeefeCato]

Closer Strickland in the 9th. A few more runs would be nice.

Warren is wild high a lot.

So is snoop dogg

Pretty nice work by Warren there.

I keep thinking he’s going to find himself but his ERA sure doesn’t show it.

When I miss the game, it's always good to read the game thread before I check the Reds website.

Thanks guys.

Did I see that right? 123 pitches for Castillo???

Sounds about right, blow him up right before any trade can be made... expecting an IL announcement this afternoon... it a Reds thing

Castillo didn't look labored at all, though. I think it was a night he just felt really, really good.

Any starting pitcher worth his salt should be able to go 120 pitches. He went three over that but that shouldn't kill him.

You would have thought Beck would have lead the league with 51 saves. But he didn't in 1998. Whoever did had one heckuva of a season.

Indeed. I'll give you a hint. Reds drafted him in something like the 10th or 11th round, signed him for three thousands bucks in 1989 , left him unprotected in the '92 expansion draft, where the Marlins grabbed him. He developed a devastating changeup that carried him to seven All-Star apperances , 601 career saves, and a plaque in Cooperstown. GREAT JOB, REDLEGS!!! "HELLS BELLS !!!"

I would have liked to have seen him go more than6 innings, throwing 123 pitches.
