    Not a fan of the intentional walk here. Yelich isn't the Yelich of last year.

    So Yelich will steal on the first off speed pitch to eliminate the DP

    He’s trending that direction though and has hit Reds a bit

    To put this in perspective: when they signed Moose it was the biggest free agent signing in Reds history. $64 million. Teams like the Red Sox, Yankees, Dbacks, Angels, Dodgers, Mariners, etc regularly give gigantic contracts to aging veterans.

    You seem to be tripping, sir.
    reading can be difficult. you left out some very key words there, but nice try. "small market" was somehow omitted by you (otherwise you would have realized bringing up markets such as new york, LA and boston would not apply). also, "past their prime" was amazingly overlooked as well.

    Good play by Ervin, but a victim of the line of his strong throw being in line with the baserunner. Maybe a surgical throw just 4' to the outside of 3B would have got the DP! But I doubt Geno's tagging skills would have been up to it.

    If it results in runs, then I stand by what I said.

    If they get a double play out of this, then I will admit I was wrong.

    Instead of Bauer giving the intentional walk, it seems like it would be better to have the reliever give the IBB, so that he only has to face 2 batters minimum instead of 3. I guess it doesn't matter though , I am sure they will live and die with Antone. (Not criticizing that)

    I get the reason for the sliding mitten but they look goofy. Like they’re going to get a pizza out of the oven.

    I did miss “small market” however I am not going to agree with your statement. The reds almost never spend on free agency. They pick up bullpen arms and bench players on free agency usually. This is pretty much the first time in my life I can remember them signing any players of note in FA. And Castellanos is 28 years old. Not past his prime. Moustakas is 31. In his prime.
    What would you say.....ya do here?

    Yeah, there's really not much evidence he knows what he's using or why.

    I'm wondering when the Reds last won a game in which they didn't hit any home runs. So often, solo shots are the only offense.
