    No more bold predictions from me.

    Go Reds!

    Defense will likely struggle and base running will do dumb stuff…just find a way to win

    Being aggressive involves taking chances.

    Taking chances includes the possibility of making outs.

    When being aggressive works everyone considers a great play.

    When being aggressive cost an out some call it a stupid play.

    We can't have it both ways

    IMHO there’s ways to be intelligently aggressive.

    Lodolo, Greene and Abbott have been too good for this team to be a bottom 10 team in MLB

    Aggressive is more “take the extra base on a batted ball”

    Stealing bases is always strategic. Who is up? How many outs? Pitcher’s move? Catcher’s talent? Covering fielders positioning. Maybe most important…what’s the count? From Elly to Stephenson must consider every time.

    Elly has to know….every single time the pitcher and the catcher are ready for him to steal every single pitch. Logical off speed counts and make sure the pitcher is going home. Bad read, don’t go. I don’t think the 2 outs at home were aggressive, I think they were bad reads, there’s a difference.

    Some love to blame House at 3rd. Are our runners checking things every pitch? Fielder locations? Batter tendencies? Likely pitch or location?

    I’m good with being aggressive (especially knowing we don’t hit to keep the line moving” but I do not believe our runners are as focused on all of the factors that they should be.

    You can't teach baseball IQ. Someone has it or they don't.

    We need smarter players. It is what it is with the group we have. They can't get out of their own way.

    We're probably looking at next year just to make the playoffs as today we have to field another lineup with three hurt players just to be competitive.

    Our LH platoon players have been a complete disaster from Day 1. All of them. That's like six guys. Crazy that we couldn't get some good production out of just one of them.

    Win today. Win the series. Build some confidence. Move forward to the next game.

    Tough job for Bell this season.

    go team go
    That's a huge improvement. They had been 0-8, so they've gone 1-1 since. Let's make that 2-1 and start building some confidence.

    We should score 5 today.

    Can we continue to get the great pitching and give up 4 or less again?

    How long of a delay are we facing?
