    Mind as well put it here.

    Cards pen walked in 2 runs in a 1-1 game tonight.

    That said we all know they’ll come back and win, hell it’s already 3-2.

    Someone most likely in Louisville had Aquino go back to his old stance. It's working. I'd at least keep him around as a bench bat.
    He can do the one thing this team sorely lacks. Hit the long ball. And with all the injuries it's not like Friedl is a better option.

    Bell pulls Solomon and puts in Cessa because he thinks Cessa is the better option. Based on recent performance (including the 3 run home run tonight), he was wrong. I'm not sure what the argument is here.

    I was just teasing how Reds might suddenly look favorably at Aquino after one good game. Not serious.

    Even the lowly Cubs have a closer.

    Worth saying twice... I hate losing to the Cubs

    In a season of moral victories only, I'd like the Reds to finish higher than Pittsburgh and Chicago or at least have a winning record against them.

    Then I can dream of a .500 season
