Yeah....but the only win for Cueto recently where he actually had plenty of runs to work with....Meso had 6 RBI that game

First game. Good luck. Just don't expect any run support.

Agree. But right now they are missing only one hitter, albeit their best one. Everybody else is in the lineup. Team still can't score.
That's my point. Offensive overhaul needed. Trouble is, I don't see it happening.
Re: 8/26/2014 Reds vs Cubbies
Daniel Corcino making his MLB debut.
Re: 8/26/2014 Reds vs Cubbies
We should have kept Travis Wood he looks like a potential Cy Young winner, of course this year most pitchers look really good when facing the Reds!
I hate to be a defeatist; however, unless Votto returns pronto and back to 100% and /or Jay Bruce catches "lightning in a bottle" and hits like Babe Ruth (which he is capable of over short periods) I don't see the Reds playing over .500 baseball the rest of the season...I'm predicting a 76-86 season :(
Re: 8/26/2014 Reds vs Cubbies
Besides LF and possibly SS, the guys we have are the guys that will play. And I wouldn't put it past Walt to stay put.

You're very optimistic. I don't see that many wins the rest of the year.
Re: 8/26/2014 Reds vs Cubbies
By the way, where is our optimist, _Sir_Charles lately?
Re: 8/26/2014 Reds vs Cubbies
Bruce picked a bad time to have a bad year.

I believe he indicated the double header in Colorado broke his will. I don't blame him.
Re: 8/26/2014 Reds vs Cubbies
This team makes me want to take a nap.
Re: 8/26/2014 Reds vs Cubbies
Bruce continues his deplorable season.
Re: 8/26/2014 Reds vs Cubbies
Bruce could use the rest of the season off. Just let him go home and rest it off.
Re: 8/26/2014 Reds vs Cubbies
Well...Corcino looked good.
