Reds @ Pirates 8-25-19 1:35pm

Bauer is burnt toast.

Reds really stink on the road.

For a team over .500 at home, their road record is unacceptable.

Just gets worse and worse.

Fire the travel secretary.

It will be interesting to see what they do this offseason with the middle infield. I might just go with galvis at short and move Denzel back to second. Use Peraza as the backup. Unless we can sign a FA it looks like we have more OF depth in the organization than middle infielders so that’s why I might consider moving senzel.

I love Denzel but he's 65 years old now

[adkindo]

Aquino should have had that

[Kc61]

Are those numbers vs righties only because that has proven to be even more of a factor

Those numbers are how Ervin has done ahead in the count against all kinds of pitching, lefties and righties included.

Fire the travel secretary.

The Pirates are awful and our record against them is awful. If we were 10-5 instead of 5-10 against them we’d probably be close to a WC spot.

[Ironman92]

I will continue to despise that defensive set up

Glad it’s not Votto just deciding to do it....it’s the bench and apparently analytics for about the last 2-3 years

[JaxRed]

Aquino should have had that

And I think VanMeter should have dived for his....

[RR1971]

I love Denzel but he's 65 years old now

Oops

[adkindo]

was Van Meter just playing very deep? Not sure why he does not get to that ball....it was deeper than the normal bloop that is in no mans land

[North]

there has just been something mildly rotten with this team most of the year.....it has always seemed to be more than just a lack of talent

Kinda like a clogged drain in the mansion. You don't quite know where it is, but you know it's out there.

[adkindo]

we will see how this goes, but in the past when Bell has pulled his starter so early, it has turned into a full on crap show

[The Operator]

So what's the deal with Bauer? Could he be hididng an injury? Pressing on a new team? Just a rough patch?

I've always thought he was a little overrated but he was always at least solid, certainly not this bad. He's had two of the worst games of his career since coming to The Reds.

I'm hoping the Indians didn't pull one over on us.

[bigfoot52]

Probably the worse OF display of defense that I've seen.

[JaxRed]

At least our arb position is getting stronger with Bauer.
