Too bad Rolen is hurt as he is 5/9 off of Dickey.......only Renteria has a hit off of the guy but most Reds haven't even faced him......typically not a good thing.

Correct. Out of the division leaders, only the Cardinals are in action tonight. So even if the Cards lose, the Reds will only be gaining a half game on the Brewers and Pirates.

I'm not worried so much about the division race right now. Keep winning games and they'll keep gaining ground. Tonight is important to get back to .500...and it's been awhile since the Reds have had a winning percentage starting with a 5 instead of a 4.

Lets hope Dickey's knuckler isn't moving. Hot and humid night, tough to really grip the ball = good for the Reds.

What's interesting is these teams have identical records yet are in totally different places in-terms of the organization.

Pardon the excitement, Bush Sr. was in office the last time I remember the Pirates being relevant enough to be on national TV.

The only thing saving you right now is the fact you're probably not within 10 feet of me at the moment!

Agreed. This lineup looks ugly. But watch them score like 8 runs.

But he's got your boy in there and there is no #12 hole....so they have to be a little higher. I'm going to go add a Janish HR prop...back in a few.

Would love to hear you elaborate on this. Mets new GM Sandy Alderson is awesome, Collins is doing a great job as the new manager, Wilpons have been basically cleared on the Madoff allegations, and their new minority owner is basically a shark who will eventually run the team. Mets have been to 2 NLCS this decade, and 1 World Series, higher attendance than Cincy, etc ... just checking your thoughts.
