    Lorenzen isn't much better. Keep Warren, Cessa, Givens, maybe Hoffman. Jettison the rest.

    Ya know, Lorenzen is a very good centerfielder. Why don't we make him our centerfielder and spot reliever instead of the other way around? He can hit. Hell, why not.

    I'd be happy to not have Barnhart, Garrett, and Lorenzen on the 2022 Reds, both because they're average at best and because I still equate them with the failed rebuild. It's time to turn the page for good on that era.

    Where is Larry tonight? I know he is as fed up as I am. No fire in this bunch. I wish they played ball like they used to back in the good old days.
    Should have a .231 hitting middle infielder OPSing .635 batting 2nd and laying down those sac bunt.
    The good old days when pitchers topped out at 85 but threw complete games.
    I am mad.
    Oh and one last think Moose is fat.

    That was a productive half inning.

    So if they loose this series to the lowly Pirates. That means they won only 1 series all month of Sept and 1st 3 days of Oct. Yep looking like a team on the brink for 2022 ... guess it's ok yo mail it in and not care

    My fear is that Garrett leaves and becomes good again. Considering that he still has two years of control and the Reds bullpen is terrible, I'd be reluctant to move on right now. Almost assured to lose Givens and Lorenzen out of the gate and I have little confidence the Reds go out and sign proven, reliable bullpen arms to replace them.

    As for Barnhart, I just don't think it's realistic to pay someone $7 mil that should be playing minimally behind Stephenson.

    Looking forward to a 2022 roster without Garrett and Lorenzen. Brantley blowing off a little steam for all of us about the need to fix the bullpen this off season

    This new Suarez guy looks good.

    Barnhart’s money needs to go to the bullpen. Givens or Chafin or similar

    It has ensured I never need to see Michael Lorenzen or Amir Garrett again.

    Wow. Tried to stay off here, but...Bell keeps running out Lorenzen and Garrett knowing what is going to happen, so why does he do it? I'm clueless. Just tied the game and they stink up the show. I know the season is over, and these games mean nothing, but for crying out loud. Fans are watching this disaster--paying fans who could be persuaded to come back to the ballpark and he pulls t=his stuff like a Little League coach giving everyone a chance and it blowing up in his face.

    Okay. Someone else that is fed up. Bring back old fashioned boomer baseball. I say.

    He’s allowing Lorenzen and Garrett to show off their stuff for other teams.
