4-4-21 Reds vs Cardinals 1:10pm

I'm more of the mind that a line drive off or over the wall the next time up is the appropriate response. He was already up and nobody was kneeling on his ribs by the time he posed. It was over. Just go back to the dugout and beat him on the field in the next PA.

I’m not getting anywhere near your lawn.

I love Castellanos' intensity during the game, and especially his comments after the game. "I've lost my whole career, and I ain't tryiin' to start this season 0 and 2".

I don't think his celebration was over the top in relation to what ensued right before it (the hbp and then play at home).

I love the intensity, not so much his love for Yadier

I actually like that too, paying respect to a baseball elder statesman. Castellanos may really think Yadi is a clown, but he knows when to stop, listen and learn.

This team needs a warrior-type like Castellanos that can produce at the top of the lineup and go to battle every day. I'd love to see him become the vocal leader.

Need a surprisingly good game from Hoffman today.

I really enjoy the transformation from off-season to regular season. Castellanos is a good example. Some wanted to dump him this off-season, just to get him off the books.

But watching him play, the guy is a gamer, a very good player, even with below average defense (which isn’t that terrible BTW).

Reds get 4 innings of 1-2 run given up by Hoffman it will be great. Look for Antone today.

[kaldaniels]

Screw the ump.

[NebraskaRed]

Hoffman let that AB get away from him after that bad call.

[Tom Servo]

how do you miss that strike 3 to Arenado

[zigbeenuthouse]

Arenado and Goldschmidt are just poison to Reds pitchers. Deadly. And DeJong too.

[JaxRed]

Arenado gets a 2 out double after ump missed strike 3.

[kaldaniels]

how do you miss that strike 3 to Arenado

Like honest question.

Do the umpires get feedback after the game like “look at this pitch, you missed it, and look at the ramifications of the miss.”?

[zigbeenuthouse]

Great first inning by Hoffman. Need 3-4 more like it.

[Kc61]

Very nice inning by Hoffman. Good stuff. Hope he can keep it under control with few mistakes.
