Not to fear. Every loss now is one step closer to a higher draft pick and one more push towards more change in the off season.

It may not be effort, but it is definitely a lack of talent in several aspects of the game. Add questionable coaching/managing at times, and you get a mess like this.

I'm really starting to question whether the Reds will even get to 75 wins.

Nuts to that. have never rooted for the dear old Red legs to lose and I sure as hell am not going to start now.
Re: Wed 9/3/14 Reds @ Orioles of Baltimore
I picked 83 wins. I thought it would be a tough year, but that the rookie manager would have them play hard to the last day.
Re: Wed 9/3/14 Reds @ Orioles of Baltimore
This offense is ugly...even listening to it on the radio.
