Espinal? Where’s France?

[NebraskaRed]

Is Ty France walking from Seattle to Cincinnati?

[texasdave]

Both Yosver Zulueta and Lyon Richardson were recalled from Louisville today.

[Ron Madden]

No real big deal but I would play Espinal at 2B and India at DH.

[coryfly]

I think the Sims deal is a pretty good one. I assume Martinez or Farmer may be next??

[Ironman92]

OMG they are DH’ing Espinal again lol

The organization doesn’t care OR they are just dumb. Stared at numbers too long and forgot what they were doing.


The Cubs are very unimpressive BUT this is one of their better lineups. 5 runs should still win it

[Tony Cloninger]

Marte is playing like Brandon Larson yet they refuse to send him down. Krall ego is really a piece of work.

Marte’s .885 fielding percentage is by far the worst on the team and that’s not counting the numerous times, Steer has bailed out his bad throws. Unbelievable

Go Reds!

Espinal as the DH is the dumbest thing Bell does a s a manager. It makes no sense at all. He is a superior fielder at 2nd over India and at 3rd over Marte. It’s not even close at 3rd.

[coryfly]

Yeah, if you are trying to win and want to play Espinal that's fine but he should be in the field. Something similar would be like pinch running for Elly. But, they aren't trying to win so....

[coryfly]

Slater to the Orioles. Not sure why Baltimore would do that but cool.

[Ironman92]

So much ridiculous stuff…no way is the 3rd generation MLB Bell that dumb, no way. Has to be all the guys in slacks and button up shirts doing these indefensible things, no they aren’t big things but no way can an organization full of employees leaving these stones unturned.

It’s insulting

[Tony Cloninger]

I would like someone to answer these questions that don’t get asked by the Reds announcing staff. Marte issue and Espinal as a DH. I would have better luck getting straight answers from this guy.

[Marc D]

A nothingburger of a deadline after another lost season, I turn in the game (for whatever reason) and I have Phil Cast being interviewed. Of all the faces and voices I could do without today.

It’s like they just hate their fans. This is all an elaborate troll game.
