4-18-21 Reds vs Indians 1:10pm

I could see that maybe, although Winker missed a whole week and Moose is on his 3rd day, and from what I feel like I’ve observed at least anecdotally speaking having the worst side effects lasting more than a day or two seems like it’s fairly rare.
Who knows though.

Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't the side effects kind of an average?

My wife had the full-on misery for three days, felt a little better the fourth day, and fine by the fifth day (but with a headache that lasted for three weeks). Others we've talked to have had lingering flu-like symptoms for as long as a week. (Though to be fair, both of those people are hyperbolic in their illness issues.)

I'm hoping for a pitcher's duel that the Reds can pull out after Bieber is out of the game.

Or a blowout wherein every Red player hits at least one homerun.

And Votto hits five.

Because that'd be cool.

I agree with Naquin today and Schrock today. I just wish Moose was ready at 3b.

I am with you. No problem with Naquin today. Just thought Senzel should have played yesterday. I called the Schrock start today yesterday.

Ace vs Ace today!

Gotta say, given the fact that the flu was basically non existent this year due to covid safety precautions, it’s super weird that the Reds have already been hit with some kind of non covid illness that has kept 2 of their players out for a few days time or longer.

yes -- our hospital (I am a board member) normally has many many in patient flu cases -- as of a few weeks ago we have had 3 this winter......

Bieber-Miley sounds more like a bad concert than an awesome pitching matchup.

[Wonderful Monds]

Sadak really does love these awful batting practice jerseys. Weirdo.

[Stray]

Love how fast Miley works

1-0 Tribe on a Jose Ramirez blast

[Wonderful Monds]

Well that’s not ideal

[Tom Servo]

Probably should have just thrown that one several feet outside too. Live and learn.

It's really not uncommon for symptoms from the vaccine to last up to a week to some degree.

However, Winker missed time with a stomach virus. I suspect Moose is dealing with a similar issue.

[JaxRed]

I hope the game plan is not to swing early. I hope the plan is to see a lot of pitches and get him out of there.

[Larkin Fan]

Joey is looking good.
