    Bad teams get excited to knock out teams that are in the playoffs. They might have a little more sharp focus and energy than the Reds' tired, bone-weak bodies that just want to make it to the end of the month alive.

    I know Winker is terrific but is the offense really this horrid without him?

    What is it that you want? Do you want to accept the reality of where they are right now or just be really mad about it all the time?

    No wonder we suck....3 players starting batting under .190.

    Winker hasn’t hit lefties this year. His absence isn’t the difference tonight.

    You'd think the Reds would realize that swinging at every single pitch has not been working for them all month.

    39 pitches to completely shut them out through 3 innings.

    Lifeless offense, you wouldn’t know they’re in a race for a wildcard spot.

    That, or maybe just something like, "These type of performances are totally unacceptable in this organization. I expect better from these players. Win or lose, we ARE going to play with more focus, with a greater sense of urgency and with greater energy. We WILL play these games like they matter, because they do. I won't tolerate anything less!!!"

    Reds have fourth worst OPS against lefties in MLB.

    The problem against lefties is that Reds can’t hit lefties.

    They don’t need a speech. They need more players who can hit lefties.

    Careful you will get attacked by some on here for saying he should be platooned. Even though the career numbers say he should be. Problem is they have no good RH bat to platoon with him on this years team. A RH bat or two for the bench next season is a need behind CF and bullpen.
