Dusty sucks

Votto is the GOAT

Reds lose 6-4

Guess I ran out of space in the title. Game 6 on the season, game 3 of the series.

Title fail :)

Anyway, TT. If the Reds win...you gotta keep "failing" on the subsequent game threads.

This is where Cueto's money is made. This is going to be a playoff-type match-up. Pitch for pitch, at-bat for at-bat.

J.J. Hoover will probably throw 3.1 innings tomorrow. This was the one thing today, you gotta go "WTF Dusty."

Jocketty successfully Dusty-proofed the lineup, but can't do the same with the bullpen. I don't know why the Reds play short a player so much.

I don't know how long I'm going to be ECSTATIC that we got Choo for Stubbs....but it looks like it could last a while.

I've still yet to watch much of anything live.....mostly just quick fast forwarding through each game.

Love Choo but continue to see no way that the plate approaches that dominate the team will win in the postseason.

Other than Bruce, and maybe Heisey, the plate approaches have been pretty good from the rest of the team.

Concerned that Cozart will blend in and keep up with Bruce in whiffs....maybe not. I do agree they seem better as a whole than last year...but seriously, Choo for Stubbs is a ridiculous approach difference.

Yeah, have no idea why the title failed. Character limit I guess.

Will be a great game to watch though.

How reasonable is it that the Reds entire IF makes the AS game?

I think this is Frazer's year and NL SS isn't great.

Frazier is looking phenomenal. Really hope he keeps it up. No way Cozart makes it but I could see Frazier, Votto, and Phillips all making it with Choo in the outfield.

Make me. Cueto throws 14 perfect innings. Reds lose 6-4.

Because when Bruce fucks up with RISP the Toddfather can clean it up.

Should have been a double play, Zimmerman messed it up.

And here's Jay Bruce for a shitty AB.

Frazier producing even with an out. That's something this team has struggled to do over the last couple years.
